Roger Ebert's Half-Star Reviews by DoyleE

Question 5

"Come on, Garry Marshall, what's going on here? You're a smart guy. You made The Flamingo Kid and Pretty Woman. Didn't you realize (a) that the whole police plot had to go, and [Rosie] O'Donnell and [Dan] Aykroyd along with it? And (b) that sex is funny when it's taken seriously, but boring when it's treated as funny? What were your thoughts the first time Rosie turned up in the leather dominatrix uniform? Did you have maybe slight misgivings that you were presiding over one of the more misguided film projects of recent years?"
