WILLIAM FRIEDKIN DIRECTS CHEVY CHASE IN 'DEAL OF THE CENTURY'
![]() |
1983 rating: ** |
Sidekick Gregory Hines and love interest Sigourney Weaver add little to this dated mess directed by William Friedkin who, at this point, couldn't direct traffic. And as anti-cold-war comedies go, this makes BEST DEFENSE seem like DR. STRANGELOVE. The poster to this film has the three leads, Chevy Chase, Gregory Hines and Sigourney Weaver with their thumbs out. Chase and Hines are giving thumbs up, and Weaver's thumb is down. She's got the right idea.
