Ladyhawke: Matthew Broderick is a terrible actor, and his work here is no exception. His character is the otherwise amusing young thief who has loud conversations with God. Melanie Pfeiffer and Rutger Hauer play unlikely lovers cursed to spend alternating periods of time as wild animals: Pfeiffer a hawk during the day and Hauer a wolf at night. Together they search for a way to break the curse, which turns out to be so annoyingly obvious that I called it as soon as I read the synopsis. But oh well. If you like generic fantasy and have an exceptional amount of tolerance for Broderick’s monotone, you may enjoy this one. I thought it was kind of lame.
