"Soapdish"
Another 'great movie' that I forgot I liked a lot. Also, over the top on purpose... very appealing to an audience in general. It manages to have just about every 'Soap Opera' convention in it (Like "Silverado" had every Western one) ...and it is done well. That's 'the closer' ...seals the deal... the acting is 'quality' along with the sets, wardrobe and cast selection. On a side note... Kevin Kline shows his range by being in both of my 'Time to Revisit' selections here. He is a 'first class actor' and undervalued in today's market. You'll recognize Robert Downey Jr eventually... and he is not undervalued today ...but was then. - Editor
Audience reviews
Robin BaugherIf you know anything at all about daytime TV soaps, this movie is a riot. I haven't laughed so hard in ages. The casting is perfection, especially Whoopi Goldberg as the head writer Rose.
Michael TowlerA fun movie and enjoyable with the actors overacting, a pleasure to watch. Towards the last part of the movie, Sally Fields' acting is so good that the real-life drama of the character she portrays made me get nearly a lump in my throat and get emotional.
Jennifer Neuens Morgan I just love watching Sally Field chewing on the scenery. She just looks like she is having So. Much. Fun. It’s a kick.
Michael Dobbins Love it. Have watched Soapdish several times. Still cracks me up. The acting is over the top the storyline is ridiculous but the movie is fun.
Susan Burke MarchThis movie is a hoot. A soap opera inside of a soap opera - with a wonderful performance by Kevin Kline - Sally Field, and Whoopie Goldberg steals the show.
