Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absoulute Genius
Review: this is a hilarious movie for all ages and all humour types. anyone who says this movie isnt good has not seen this movie. roseann barr and meryl streep are genuis together in this somewhat dark humoured comedy.
a must have for any DVD collection.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Worth a look
Review: This is certainly not the turkey some critics labelled it as when it was first released in the late 80's. It's actually pretty funny and immensely entertaining, but for me, the highlight is Meryl Streep, obviously having a ball here in her first ever comedy, giving an incredibly full out, hilarious caricatured performance. When she's on screen, you just don't watch anyone else.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not brilliant, but entertaining
Review: This movie is a comedy, and a comedy should make you laugh. This movie makes me laugh. Made in 1989, not long after Roseanne's excellent sitcom had begun its run, Roseanne had perhaps not come into her own as an actress. However, she is still well cast as a frumpy housewife named Ruth whose tacky accountant husband Bob leaves her for a spoiled romance novelist named Mary Fischer. As a revenge fantasy, there is some satisfaction in seeing Ruth systematically destroy her husband's life. And there are some extremely funny supporting characters, particularly Mary Fischer's maniacally uncouth mother and Bob and Ruth's bratty, manic children, who all contribute to Bob's undoing. But the best moments of the film belong to Meryl Streep. Normally known for her dramatic work, Streep is absolutely hysterical at playing a self-absorbed, tantrum-throwing, pretentious, ... wanna-be diva. "She-devil" is definitely worth seeing for a few laughs.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must for every Roseanne fans
Review: Very funny... Great Roseanne and Meryl Streep like you've never seen her before!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: AVOID!
Review: Well if you have seen the great classic dark mini series, AVOID this comedy that isn't even a good one.
