MOVIE REVIEW : Comedy of a High Order

May 29, 1992|KENNETH TURAN | TIMES FILM CRITIC

Whether it was in a monster hit like "Dirty Dancing" or other films that didn't do quite so well, director Emile Ardolino never gave any indication that he could be so adept a director of comedy, so good (no doubt with the help of editor Richard Halsey) at keeping the pace lively and the spirits high. Still, ours is fortunately not to reason why, ours is merely to be grateful and enjoy a comedy that reminds you how good it feels to simply sit back and laugh out loud.
