Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

With only a few exceptions (the Back to the Future series and a couple of others), Michael J. Fox has been unable to translate his TV success into movie stardom. It may just be a poor choice of material, such as with this limp Barry Sonnenfeld comedy about a New York hotel concierge trying to save up for his own hotel. What's he saving? The massive tips he gets from hotel guests for whom he does all manner of favors. But his conscience is tested when he falls for the mistress of one of his wealthiest clients and finds he must choose between his integrity and his dream. Fox is appealing, and so is Gabrielle Anwar, as the woman who changes him. But neither can rescue this slow-witted gloss on The Apartment. And what is Sonnenfeld, the stylish director of Men in Black and Get Shorty, doing with this dog? --Marshall Fine

5.0 out of 5 stars If you are a Fox fan, then you should see this movie, July 9, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: For Love Or Money [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is definitely a feel good movie. Fox is good as a hotel conceirge who has a dream one day of owning his own hotel. His dream becomes interrupted when he falls for a clients' mistress played by Gabrielle Anwar.

While there are times in this movie that you are completely suspended in disbelief, I liked this movie. The chemistry between Fox and Anwar seems genuine and real. Fox's charisma shines really bright when he shares the dreams of his hotel with Anwar.

I probably will never own this movie, but it would be a great movie to rent and see it with that special someone in your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fox shines in this delightful film, May 3, 2001

By	Mickey O'Neill (Metairie, LA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: For Love Or Money [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The professional critics hated this film, so it can't be all bad! In fact, it provides an excellent background on which Micheal J. Fox showcases his talent. A great supporting cast and a fun plot make this entire film a gem you'll want to watch again and again. It sure ain't film noir. Eat your heart out, Mr. Maltin!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Feel Good Masterpiece, January 30, 2001

By	EJ (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: For Love Or Money [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a fantstic movie. FOX and ANWAR are absoultley fantastic in this romantic comedy. Viewers will agree this movie has a 'feel' to it which a lot of movies (not just romantic comedies) fail to produce. I think it is a combination of the quality of writing and sonnenfelds directing with the Amazing proformances from not just the 2 stars but the supporting cast.

Oh yeah!!, one last thing this movie was VERY hard to find at AMAZON because Im from australia and this movie is called "The Conceirge" instead of "For Love or Money", i personally think the title "The concerige" sounds better because "For Love or Money" sounds like any romantic song or movie. However with the title "The concerige" the title spaces it out from the rest, which a movie like this should because this movie is simply amazing.
