Score: 3/10
Well, what can you say about a film that stars Sophia Petrillo and Rambo, as mother and son. Its 87 minutes of insecure Sargent Joe Bomowski(Sylvester Stallone) being pushed around and trying to push away his Jersey mother Tutti Bomowski (Estelle Getty). While she comes to L.A. for a visit, she buys a gun from the back of van. Upon walking away she witnesses a murder, now its not just a visit, she must stay til the crime is solved by son Joe and Lieutenant Gwen (JoBeth Williams), his ex-girlfriend and boss. Even though it can be painful to watch, it does move along quick. Plus Ving Rhames makes a cameo early on in the film as Mr. Stereo. Clearly an attempt by Stallone to add to his acting portfolio, it was a miss for him. Its a comedy with little action. The humor revolves around Getty's character, its worth a viewing to see her do what she does best. Be a motherly figure. Stallone still looks semi-normal/natural in the film, he has since changed slightly to a more plastic steroid induced look.
