    A TV news manager tries to stop his co-anchor ex-wife from marrying her new boyfriend.

    I'm probably the only one, but i didn't much care for His Girl Friday. I didn't find it amusing and the characters were unappealing. I liked this remake a little more. The leads are energetic and likeable, and it's funny at times. When it tries to be serious it doesn't work at all, and it's depiction of TV news isn't beliveable at all.

    Effective performances by Kathleen Turner, Burt Reynolds, and Christopher Reeve, but this remake comedy media movie is very average, lack of laughs.

    Strange movie, 'cause it didn't seem to fit any of the actors involved. Somehow they all seemed past their primes and silly. Sort of a poor man's "Broadcast News".

    Worth watching, but really only for Christopher Reeve. He's awesome in this, really funny. And Ned Beatty is good for a couple of laughs.

    To get the full fun of this movie, you have to watch the first two versions, His Girl Friday, and The Front Page. Very Fun.
