9.7/10.A nice funny comedy that showed Kurt Russell's comedic acting chops after his previous two great action movies The Thing and Escape From New York.He plays it well, often the straight man to Goldie Hawn's zany antics.True it does the cliche of happiness is more important than wealth or success but here it works because Hawn is a spoiled empty woman.Russell helps her change and for the better.Director Gary Marshall does an excellent job here.

Question: When Dean and Annie are at the restaurant/bar, they go outside and with plastic wine type glasses Dean pours some champagne in their glasses. When Annie picks up her glass, the bottom comes off. She says, Oh I lost my bottom! Was that in the script or was it a blooper? I've always felt it was a blooper and if it was Annie covered it so well. Thanks.

Answer: Goldie Hawn mentioned in an interview that it was a blooper. She explained that she and Kurt Russell are so comfortable with one another that it wasn't really like acting, and she reacted naturally.
