1987 news movie
Rating: 14/20
Plot: A trio of news people fight for each other's affections.
The problem with a lot of these 80's movies is that they remind me of the 1980s. I probably wrote that about at least one other movie in the last couple of months.
Holly Hunter is doing her Holly Hunter thing, William Hurt showcases the depth and range of a piece of cardboard, and Albert Brooks steals the movie. It's a little difficult at times to figure out what the hell Holly Hunter's character wants in this movie. Her character isn't well written at all. Either that or William Hurt is a lot better looking than he seems to be.
This movie's got a rhythm that I like, especially when the characters are trying to get their jobs done. I didn't think much of the humor was funny though Albert Brooks was a joy to watch in nearly every scene he was in.
