The Favor (1994)

A simple script, brought me back to the 80's..

I know this movie was made in the 99's but it brought me back to the 1980's when you Em o a movie to escape reality for a little over 90 mins. It entertained me- plain and simple- to the point. I think the acting was great for what it was- a simple early RomCom that had no sex, language or violence. These were the movies that I could watch with my parents at 12 and not be embarrassed by anything we saw. Is it as well done as "While You Were Sleeping"- no. Or "Sleepless on Seattle", no. But, it didn't have to be. Some movies are just a great distraction from your real world life and bring you a smile or a chuckle and that's enough. These were also celebrities that I grew up with- and when I see them in their younger years it brings me back to mine, it's a comfort. I also enjoy movies that show friendships & relationships that are not perfect but flawed- yet, the bonds are strong enough to bring them back together. I like happy endings...I NEED happy endings.
