    A wonderful movie, sincere and inspired, with four terrific performances and a story that doesn't let up. The picture has the gentle, nourishing quality of a fairy tale that you want to believe, and the unsoftened impact of gut-level entertainment. [13 July 1990, Daily Datebook, p.E1]

    A big sweet hit, tingly and glycerined in a phony way, but diverting.

    Though saddled with hoary jokes, Goldberg at least pumps some funky life into the bland proceedings.
