He's My Girl (1987) Reviews
It wasn't THAT bad....?
'He's My Girl' is, I am sorry to say, another film which you pretty much have to force yourself to laugh at it. Yes, it's bad. No, it's not 'Titanic' or 'Lord of the Rings'. But it's a film that's so stupid, so pathetic, so poorly done, and so cheesy, it's actually rather fun to watch and make fun of. Perhaps that was the point from the very beginning. ***SPOILERS*** Bryan is an aspiring musician. His trouble-maker manager, Reggie, enters Bryan into a music contest in order to get him out to Hollywood and around the 'big-wig' music producers. Bryan wins (no surprise) but there's one catch: he cannot take Reggie with him. He has to take a girl! So clever Reggie decides to transform himself into a woman, courtesy of Bryan's mom, a beauty shop owner. Reggie becomes 'Regina', and 'she' and Bryan, posing as lovers, head off to sunny California. Complications arise, however, when the perverted head of the TV station sponsoring the contest falls for 'Regina', and Reggie falls for an employee of the station. Then Bryan falls for a waitress at the hotel where he and 'Regina' are staying. Soon Bryan is trying to hide Reggie's bust enhancements from his new love interest while 'Regina' is running around Hollywood in a BATHING SUIT...can this get any more crazy?? It's a stupid movie with lots of language and sexual content to go around. But that's ok. If you're looking for something stupid to lift your mood, I recommend it.
Priddy good Tootsie take-off
A coupla posters have slagged this off, but it isn't really that bad. It has obviously been inspired by Hoffman's Tootsie film, and adds a new spin on the genre, if I can call it a genre. TK Carter's pretty funny with his over the top impressions and rubber faced expressions. And, it is refreshing to see some black actors in a love story. Tasty Tasha!!
The usual role swap story, but you may tolerate it for TK Carter's performance. (spoilers)
He' My Girl is yet another one of those role-switching 80s comedies. An aspiring rock stars' manager (Carter) invests his clients money in six hundred entries into a contest whereby the selected winner will win a trip to L.A. for a week. They'll get to meet washed up pop rocker, Simon Sledge. The duo look at the contest as the perfect opportunity to get Brian (the aspiring rocker) recognized since he'll be around all of the industry hot shots. But, the catch is, that the contest requires that the winner bring a date, and the only way Brian's manager will get to go is--you guessed it--by dressing up as a woman. It's the usual role-switching comedy and follows the same tired story line. The manager is a little too cocky and finds a girlfriend while he's out of disguise. Meanwhile, Brian, too, falls in love. And the two start to find it quite difficult to keep up the charade. The ending was a bit funnier than the rest of the movie, but you've been warned, expect the same old, same old. It even has that peppy 80s intro credits. But, this comedy is recommended for you if you love performances by TK Carter. If you do, you're in for a real treat since he basically steals the show (what an underrated actor). Other than that, this movie is nothing remotely special.
T.K. Carter's impeccable comic timing and Gabrielle Beaumont's snappy direction make this movie a joy to watch.
One for 80's nostalgists, ' He's My Girl ' is terrific fun, a screwball comedy with colourful characters and a great rock soundtrack. T.K. Carter is a blast as Reggie, the manager of would-be rock star Bryan Peters ( David Hallyday ), who dons drag to accompany his client on a prize-winning trip to Los Angeles, courtesy of a popular music TV show. As butch femme Regina, Reggie hopes to make Bryan's dream of stardom come true - but he hadn't counted on falling in love or the lecherous advances of the TV station manager! Carter's impeccable comic timing and Gabrielle Beaumont's snappy direction make the movie a joy to watch. Musician Hallyday gets to belt out a few cool rock tracks and even Jennifer Tilly pops up in an early role as Bryan's sculptress girlfriend.
blecch
