| Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot (1992) Cast:Sylvester Stallone, Estelle Getty,JoBeth Williams,Gailard Sartain Sylvester Stallone stars as a macho cop who is really pushed to the limit when his obnoxious mom comes over for a visit and becomes a witness to a murder Stallone must contend with her as well as her overbearing obnoxiousness. In this labored and lame "comedy" which hits the nadir when it showcases Sly Stallone in a diaper. Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot does prove one thing. Stallone CAN'T do comedy. Simply put he looks ridiculous and embarrassed by this whole moronic affair which features a talented cast but wastes them all, especially Williams who is wasted as Stallone's girlfriend. But it's Getty who ruins what potentional this lackluster junker has left. As the overbearing mother Getty goes far too over the top and makes her character seriously annoying. Indeed one is shocked at how far Sly fell with this folly, but he did recover somewhat with the vastly superior Cliffhanger. D.Roger Spottiswoode * |
