Businessman Manny Singer (Ray Liotta) needs a reliable nanny to watch his daughter, Molly (Tina Majorino), in the absence of her late mother, yet the early applicants are unimpressive. Molly has barely talked since her mother's death, but when Corrina Washington (Whoopi Goldberg) gets the girl chatting, she lands the job. Although some think their relationship is ahead of its time for the 1950s, African-American Corrina and Manny, who is white, soon appear to be headed for romance.

For the most part, the actors are asked to play social types rather than real characters.

Rated: 2.5/4

Whoopi's great triumph is that she plays the kind of maid that has never been seen on the screen before...Whoopi's liberated maid is a symbolic payback of sorts for all those years of silver screen servitude for black actresses.

Rated: 4/5

Not funny. Which is the kiss of death for a movie where some kind of comedy is supposed to carry the story. Running a car into a pole at the diner is not necessarily funny. Certainly not here. Going through a car wash is not funny, either. Neither is a pet turtle. Etc. Etc.
