Review of Mannequin

Mannequin (1987)
2/10
If a Starship Song Was the Best Thing in the Film....
29 August 2022
...how sad is that? Starship is one of the most reviled, untalented, and irritating bands of all time, the Nickelback of the 80s.

There's one decent thing in the film, the jokes and timing from Hollywood. The rest is unfunny, irritating, and charmless.

That includes the central premise of the film, that a woman exists only to be brought to life by a man.

That includes the 2nd female character, a girlfriend who is constantly groped and assaulted by one male after another. And yet she is supposed to be the bad guy the audience should "hate."

That includes one unbelievable plot twist after another.

Skip it.
