Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Walter (Willis) needs a date for that all-important business dinner, but the lady his brother fixes him up with should carry a blue-touch-paper warning. Nadia (Basinger) can't drink without going ape. She loses him his job, wrecks his car, and inadvertently sets her insanely jealous ex-boyfriend David (Larroquette) on his case. Most of the set pieces are predictable in this formula comedy, though there is a sprinkling of chuckles in the sight gags.Author: BC
