NEW MOVIES IN TOWN
GEORGIA SQUARE
• UHF. "Weird" A1 Yankovic is the
down-and-out owner of a broken
down UHF TV station, Channel 62.
How can he turn it into a ratings
success before the bills come due?
Alright. I admit it looks really,
really dumb. I know you expect it
to be bad I went in expecting it to
be bad. But it’s very funny. It’s like
“Airplane" goes to Hollywood, a
wicked skewering of everything
related to the TV and film
industries, from talkshows to
gameshows to “Rambo.” Not to
forget networks, news, fish,
poodles, mops, music videos,
spatulas, mortuaries, etc., etc., etc.
The jokes come at you almost
continually. If you liked the
somewhat heavy-handed humor of
“Airplane" and “The Naked Gun”
or the sketch-style satire of
“Hollywood Shuffle,” you’re almost
certain to like this. At any rate,
and whether you liked those or not,
I guarantee you can’t sit through
this film without laughing.
Of course, Sonia still doesn’t
AFTER HOURS
believe it deserves a smiley face
• When Harry Met Sally .... About
two friends, played by Meg Ryan
and Billy Crystal, who have a go at
romance. Advance word is very
positive, and director Rob Reiner
has a great track record ("Stand By
Me," *The Princess Bride"), so you
could probably do worse than to
spend your money here. —
• Shag. About four girls having a
last fling at the beach in the
summer of 1963, before going to
college in the fall. Stars Phoebe
Cates, Bridget Fonda and
Annabeth Gish. I don’t know. The
previews look interesting, and it’s
distributed by Hemdale, a
somewhat dependable
independent nlm company. Maybe.
