Customer Reviews of Jumpin' Jack Flash
A One-Woman Show Whoopi Goldberg, like Robin Williams, got her start as a standup comedian, and like Williams, basically plays herself repeatedly in her films. That self is very funny and very attractive, but again as with Williams, she tends to ride roughshod over the other actors in the film. That is a tribute to what a great star she is, still it would be interesting to see her in company with better supporting actors. <

>That said, Jumpin' Jack Flash is really a hoot, perfect after a long day at the office or other unpleasant experience. Buy it, sit back, and enjoy! You will not be disappointed. <

>Note: If you can find it, there's a wonderful MTV video floating around the Web of Whoopi banging a cab driver over the head with a frying pan, running away with him in pursuit, and ducking into a building, slamming the door behind her. When she turns around, she's in a recording studio, where Keith Richards asks her if she's a backup singer. Of course she immediately becomes a backup singer, backing up Aretha Franklin who is recording "Jumpin' Jack Flash" with Richards. Neither Franklin nor the Stones appear in the final version, but Franklin's version of "Jumpin' Jack Flash," which is as good as the Stones', provides the backup to the credits at the end.
WHOOPI, GREAT STONES' FAN
I saw Whoopi introducing "the greatest rock & roll band of the world" in a show during the Rolling Stones Voodoo Lounge tour. Here in this film she confirms her Stones predilection as an hilarant and crazy office "nerd" It is a very good film.
An 80's Classic
Am I the only person out there who, upon watching it for the first time, thought that Jonathan Pryce had the very best voice in the entire world?

>Once the audio kicked in, during their "instant message" exchanges, I was hooked.
<
>To this day, I still watch it just for the basic romance.

>And, of course, to chuckle at what what so very, very high-tech back in 1986!
