Trivia:
Director 'Michael Gottlieb' got the idea for this film when he was walking by a store window and was startled to "see" a mannequin move by itself. He realized it was just an optical illusion caused by a combination of lights and shadows, but began to wonder what would happen if a mannequin actually DID come to life. moreGoofs:
Continuity: During the chase scene at the end of the movie, Switcher's can be seen wearing white sneakers as he runs down a flight of stairs. But in the rest of the chase scene he is wearing the bowling shoes he has on during the rest of the movie. moreQuotes:
Hollywood Montrose: Don't let Felix get to you, he's just got a bad case of Miami Vice. moreSoundtrack:

It's about a guy who is down on his luck has an incredible woman come into his life and make his life better. The only problem is that she is a mannequin who only comes to life when no one else is around.
Kim Cattrall is amazing. She is beautiful, sexy, fun, loving, and full of life. She makes the fantasy character ideal and personally I think that she deserves an award for this film. Andrew McCarthy is also very charismatic and likable in this film.
This movie is light, silly, funny, romantic, and very entertaining. It's a feel good movie definitely worth watching.
10/10
