Dana Elcar, Lily Tomlin, Madolyn Smith

This 1984 Carl Reiner comedy is one of the best film showcases of Steve Martin and Lily Tomlin's sundry talents. Tomlin plays a sickly spinster who is given the chance to transfer her soul to the body...( read more  read more... ) of another woman, and thus go on living. But the magic man who is supposed to make this happen goofs up and locks her spirit inside a bachelor lawyer (Martin)--or, more accurately, within the right half of the poor fellow's body. Suddenly, the swinging man-about-town is literally at odds with himself, unable to make a self-determining decision without a huge internal struggle. Martin's physical comedy, always remarkable, is absolutely inspired this time around, as he convincingly portrays a man split down the middle between opposing sensibilities. This is also one of the best films by Reiner, a filmmaker whose novel ideas are sometimes more striking than their execution. --Tom Keogh

    You know, I clearly remember enjoying this movie when I first saw it. Age, maybe, has changed my perspective. While Martin's physical comedy is second to none, this story really has not much substance, and I found myself not laughing at any of the jokes. Still, Steve Martin's...( read more) body of work will stand for a long time to come.

    Amusing rather than laugh out loud funny, this is still far better than any of Martin's efforts of recent years.

    One of my personal fave Steve Martin films. A good idea that works really well.

    Probably really funny. Unfortunately I don't remember it too well. But I know I've seen it, so I had to rate it. Good for me.

    A few funny bits, but a truly overrated film.

    A very funny Steve Martin classic from the '80s.

    A rich dying woman wants to transfer her soul into a healthy body but it accidentally ends up in her lawyer's body by mistake. Steve Martin plays the lawyer and he is really good in this, especially the physical comedy parts where one side is his the other part of his body is con...( read more)trolled by Lily Tomlin. Not a classic movie by any definition but worth a watch if you are bored.
