The Review: Steve Martin as a freshly-fired ad exec, Goldie Hawn as his wife accompanying him to NYC for a job interview, and John Cleese as the up-scale hotel manager with a serious attitude. As with Forces of Nature, lots of traveling difficulties and situations in the style of Book of Job crossed with Monty Python. A remake of Neil Simon's 1970 comedy (originally starring Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis), updated for the 1990's with tons of "boomer" 1960's references, and at least one surprising cameo.
