I loved this movie. the story was cheesy, but done well. the psychiatrist was hilarious. stockard channing was hilarious.
there were glowing condoms for goodness sake. but most of all, John Ritter is phenomenal. The sequence after the shock therapy, is the funniest physical comedy scene I have ever seen on film.
