Entertainment Reviews:
...Cute and clever....[Pfeiffer's] realistic yet gently comic performance is a study in empathy and grace....Al Pacino is something else again...

But this is more than just an irritating movie; it's a disappointing one.

Rating: B+ --
The movie is mature enough to understand that love, contrary to our starry-eyed fantasies, often demands a spark of will - that at some point you have to leave your cloister behind and say that, yes, this is the person I'm going to take a chance on.

Marshall directs as if Marty had never happened.

Rating: 3/4 --
Our Flick of the Week is ''Frankie & Johnny,'' which manages to work as a sudsy romantic picture about big city loneliness despite an awkward performance by Al Pacino in the role of a hash-house dispenser of wisdom.

...[Pfeiffer is] fine-tuned, deeply persuasive....Pacino] makes Johnny's endless enterprise in wooing Frankie a delight...

Product Description:
In this adaptation of Terrence McNally's play, Johnny (Al Pacino), an ex-con turned short order cook, woos Frankie (Michelle Pfeiffer), a reluctant plain jane waitress. Set in a dingy Manhattan diner, the story revolves around Johnny's eager, won't-stop-at-anything attempt to draw the embittered, recalcitrant Frankie out of her shell. As the two loners inch closer to love, we learn about their past: how Johnny landed in prison and what soured Frankie on men and relationships.

Frankie & Johnny- A Warm Romantic Comedy!
Movie Lover: ROBERT VELEZ from
BRONX, NY US -- February, 3, 2018
If you love romantic comedies, Frankie & Johnny is right up your alley! In fact, this film might rank up as one of the best in the genre! Directed by Garry Marshall(brother of Penny) Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer have dynamic chemistry as two folks looking for love in the wrong places! This movie will make you laugh as well as cry hoping that Al and Michelle hook up! I will not tell you the rest of the plot but I know you will enjoy it very much! The supporting cast adds to the fun of a well crafted movie that does not gets the recognition that it deserves! The film's soundtrack is top notch as well leaving you wanting for more!
