Amazon.com video review:
When director Paul Mazursky is good, he's a keen social observer
capable of stinging satire. And when he's bad, he makes movies like this
bizarre curiosity. A Los Angeles couple (the improbably paired Woody Allen and
Bette Midler) head for the mall on their anniversary to do some
shopping and, among other things, wind up revealing marital
infidelities and having sex with each other in a movie theater. Aside
from the idea of the neurotic Allen visiting a mall, there is
surprisingly little entertainment value here. Both actors exert serious
effort to impart a humorous spin to some of the most pretentious and
tedious dialogue in recent memory. The whole thing is like a lengthy
marriage counseling session, minus the counselor. Can this marriage be
saved? By the end, you'll be wondering, who cares? --Marshall Fine
