Movie Reviews of Troop Beverly Hills
Movie Review: It's Cookie Time
Summary: 4 Stars
Campy and cliche. Shelly Long at her best. Supported by a cast of "characters" (Craig T Nelson, Betty Thomas, Mary Gross, Tori Spelling [ugh], Shelley Morrison) and chock full of cameos (Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, Cheech Marin, Ted McGinley, Joyce Brothers, Robin Leach, Pia Zadora). This tale underscores the need for communication, self esteem and understanding of different perspectives. How does a poor kid survive in the jungle of Beverly Hills when she seems/is/acts more mature than her parents? Quite well actually. Most fun segment is "Cookie Time." Best character interaction: Anything between Betty Thomas and Shelly Long.
Summary of Troop Beverly Hills
Shelley Long discovers that when the going gets tough, the tough go camping in Troop Beverly Hills, a comedy about lifestyles of the rich and outrageous. Flamboyantly wealthy Phyllis Nefler (Long) has everything money can buy--a drop-dead Beverly Hills mansion, a classic Rolls, furs, jewelry and designer gowns. The one thing she doesn't have is her husband Freddy (Craig T. Nelson), who's leaving her for good. Maybe. Determined to prove she's still the creative, energetic woman Freddy once loved, Phyllis throws luxury to the wind and becomes leader of her daughter's Wilderness Girls troop. But how much can this chic cookie take before she crumbles? Is saving her marriage really worth trading Gucci bags for sleeping bags--not to mention actually touching bugs? Featuring cameos by Robin Leach, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Pia Zadora, Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, Dr. Joyce Brothers, and Cheech Marin, Shelley Long blazes new comic trails in this hilarious trial-by-campfire that leaves the wilderness wilder than ever.Action & Adventure DVD Video
