  • Who's That Girl
  • Four years unjustly jailed haven't dampened the spirits or determination of Nikki Finn. The spunky parolee sets out to clear her name - and sets the Big Apple spinning in deliriously funny ways.
  • "Madonna is sexy and funny - a very engaging comedian," Vincent Canby of The New York Times wrote of her work in Who's That Girl. The music/movie superstar displays kicky comic flair and sings four terrific soundtrack tunes (Causing a Commotion, The Look of Love, Can't Stop and the title song). Griffin Dunne co-stars as an uptight, soon-to-wed attorney whose mild lifestyle swerves into the path of uproarious oncoming traffic courtesy of Nikki. This frisky caper proves screwball comedy is alive and swell.

    Urban Cinefile Critics

    The storyline is simply bizarre, but somehow all the crazy elements fall together in one appealing madcap frolic in this 1987 Madonna vehicle that ends up being more than the sum of its parts.

    This patently painful flick marks the first and last time that director James Foley would tackle comedy. And the reasons why are right up there on the screen.

    There is nothing wrong with Who's That Girl that a different script, a different director, and a different star wouldn't have fixed.

    At least Shanghai Surprise was nice to look at and had some George Harrison songs.
