-100/10. Possibly one of the worst movies of the 80's. What was the studio thinking when they greenlit this trash? Teri Garr reached her peak with Young Frankenstein then went downhill. Michael Keaton's just as stiff here as he is in everything he does. I loathed this movie. The incompetent husband/father who can't do squat as a stay at home dad at first while his wife succeeds with ease. Right, like they both wouldn't struggle and she wouldn't help him out or have friends help. Martin Mull should've known better. If anything, I only liked Ann Jillian as the sexy neighbor though her interest in Keaton baffled me.
