  • stugood (Rated: 5)

    Tonally confused direction, a terminally contrived plot and inconsistent character actions make this nothing more than a light 1980s curio. Too bad, because Hanks and Long do show some chemistry here.

  • Kamurai (Rated: 7)

    Good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.

    Despite this movie releasing in 1986, this movie actually dates really well. With the focus being much more on the horror of real estate and property maintenance, things like smart phones aren't relevant to the story. This could easily be reboot...
