Goosed

Just filled with crude stereotypes of Jewish parents and blacks, this film keeps feeling like someone is improvising from an empty story to start with. Tilly keeps chasing men until she can find the predicted love of her life, Dr. Steven, but only finds one disaster after another. Some name puns get overkilled with Richard, an annoying guy at work. The Uncola man even shows up to analyze what she learned from all these guys and why she keeps chasing them. It was an endurance test to view more than 10 minutes before quitting.

I was pretty excited to see a movie that had the comedic talents of Thomas Haden Church and Damon Wayans displayed right on the cover of the video box, so I rented Goosed without a second thought. Boy would I like that 3.50 back. Damon Wayans was alright, I guess, and Thomas Haden Church was WAY underused. He didn't even get a chance to start to show what a comedic genius he is. Everything else about this movie completely blew. I suppose its possible just I don't understand it because of the whole female perspective thing, if thats the case I'm glad I am a guy. I'd hate for my life to be a less-than-watchable movie.

Joan Rivers and the fella playing her husband made this movie something of value to me. And Jennifer Tilly is pretty cute too. But to me, the parents- played by Joan Rivers and Robert Klein- were the stand-outs in an otherwise lackluster film.

Disappointing to me the way the film ultimately turned out (not as mystical and romantic as I'd hoped), but all the way up to the end, it had promise to get better. I appreciate the campiness, I appreciate the old-fashioned something about it that I don't know how to describe... I do like it...but still, it's lacking.

This is one of those films that falls below its potential, but is still an okay watch.

I loved this movie! Danielle Harris was wonderful and Jennifer Tilly totally brought out her character. It's witty, fun and has lots of laughs. I totally recommend it!

I happened to stumble upon the 1999 movie here late in 2020, and I had not even heard about the movie prior to now. I have always enjoyed watching Jennifer Tilly in movies, so of course I found the time to sit down and watch this movie from writer Charbie Dahl and director Aleta Chappelle.

However, "Goosed" was not a particularly grand movie experience that I had been sorely missing out on. Turns out that writer Charbie Dahl didn't really muster to conjure up an overly entertaining story. I mean, the concept of the movie was definitely adequate, but the events that transpired throughout the course of the movie just didn't really work out all that well. The storyline ended up being somewhat flaccid and too mainstreamed.

While the movie suffered from having an inadequate script and storyline, then Jennifer Tilly definitely managed to make the movie watchable with her performance, and she carried it quite the distance. In addition to the talented Jennifer Tilly then the movie had a handful of impressive names in the cast list, with the likes of Joan Rivers, Robert Klein, Damon Wayans and Thomas Haden Church to mention the most outstanding.

The movie is listed as a comedy, but there was actually nothing much to make you laugh throughout the course of the entire movie.

All in all, "Goosed" proved to be a mediocre movie experience, and I am rating it a flat five out of ten stars. "Goosed" is adequate enough for a single viewing, but I doubt that I will ever be returning to watch this movie a second time.
