Rating of 6???????

Come on. It's at least an 8....for a comedy????

I love when Ramos us holding the baby, reluctantly, and tells her, "here, I've never held a baby before. You HOLD her.:

And she replied, "Oh, like I have?"

She just brilliantly played a wonderfully corporate, uptight, aggressive, sick-of-her-pill-of-a-prick "pischer" sub-ordinate, played by James Spader.

Compared to so many of the CRAP comedies and rom - coms made today, this was easily an 8 or 9.

I know! I just saw this movie listed in the TV guide and came here to get some info. I saw this numerous times in the past, but it has been a while. I just gave it an 8, but was tempted to give a 10 to try to bump up the paltry 6.

One of Keaton's best IMO.

I agree with both of you. It's an 8. I enjoyed this light comedy a lot. Diane Keaton is her usual versatile self and Sam Shepard is the perfect match for her.

Turns up on tv every so often.
