      R B Easily one of Danny Devito's best comedic performances. Suprised at the low rating from other reviewers. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      BBC.com Rated: 4/5 Oct 13, 2002 Full Review Matt Brunson Creative Loafing The razor-sharp script contains countless knowing digs at the TV industry, and the mock shows created for MBC (H.O.T. B.O.D.S. and Levar, the pimp series Nunzio's Girls, etc.) are inspired. Rated: 3.5/4 Jul 24, 2016 Full Review Mike McGranaghan Aisle Seat Television has changed so dramatically since 1984 that the film has lost a lot of its direct relevance. There's still fun to be had, it's just that the sting isn't as great as it likely was when it initially aired. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 18, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
