"She's So Lovely" has your typically perfect John Travolta
role. He is really cut out for roles like these, in which
he does what I've heard described as his "Travolta bad guy
act." Not that he's really a bad guy here; he just somehow
brings that aura to every role in which he comes in contact
with a gun. Unfortunately, the moviegoer waits nearly an hour
before Travolta shows up. Much fighting , punching swearing
and violence show up, first.
One hour into the movie, Travolta's wife of ten years now
wishes to leave him and their young children for her old boyfriend
- who happens to have been in the looney bin for the past
ten years - and probably should have remained there. However
, she's not all there herself it seems , and she wants to
run right back into his arms now that he's out of the funny
farm. Naturally, wealthy Travolta is shocked, outraged, angry,
and, of course, just crazy enough himself to pack a pistol.
Travolta conveys all these emotions splendidly, and makes
this movie worth seeing - more than once. But don't take young
children - the violence is there, as well as a lot of swearing.
My rating: 4 stars , 2 thumbs up , and another trip to the
movie theatre for Travolta's latest picture.
Rating: PG
