464.0. "I'll Do Anything" by 28236::SKOWRONEK () Mon Feb 14 1994 11:35

    
    I saw "I'll Do Anything" this weekend and would like to recommend that
    people save their money & wait till this one is out on video (or forget
    about it completely).  From the commercials, I thought this would be a
    cute movie about a guy who gets custody of his daughter after having no
    contact with her for 6 years, and their living adjustment together.  
    
    The scenes with Nick Nolte & the daughter character are very few and
    the funniest ones are in the movies preview.  This movie is more about
    an Emmy-nominated ('87) actor who can't find a job -- it is a *very*
    boring & dull movie.  Unfortunately we took my daughter and her two
    friends with us to see it (we thought it would be a "kids" type of
    movie like "curly sue"), and during the whole movie, wished we were
    across the hall at "My Father the Hero".  This is a big sleeper, so
    please save your money -- there are probably 2 funny scenes in the
    whole movie & most of the movie makes no sense what-so-ever.
    
    During the whole movie, I kept saying to my SO -- "I can't believe how
    *bad* this movie is" -- we applauded when it ended because we were so
    happy to just leave . . . .

	I thought this was a cute movie and I actually enjoyed it. What I really liked is that it was not predictable. And the few times that I did try to predict what was going to happen I was wrong. Also if I remember correctly , this film was originally a Musical believe it or not. Supposedly the test audiences hated the Musical part of it and it was re-edited.
