Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Majorthebys Charming and brutal

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

astro7878 One of my favorite movies of all time with so many great lines I wouldn't even know where to begin. From 'Love brokers' to the driving across the bridge scene, everything flows perfectly through this movie without anything wasted, Ron Howard really pulled it together. Sure it has a dark side but the comedy trumps it. The chemistry between the actors is so good, Shelly Long playing a prostitute was a bit of a stretch but she too was basically kind of nerdy. Short of 'Pretty Woman' most films involving the lives of prostitutes don't end well but this one has a kind, soft finish. There are lots of cameos in the movie, you should IMDb it before watching. Richard Belzer plays a bad dude which is scarily believable. Highly recommended movie that everyone can enjoy.

Danny Blankenship 1982's "Night Shift" which was one of legendary director Ron Howard's first works can now be considered a comedy classic. The film is certainly funny and it has plenty of funny memorable one liners and it was sharply written with intelligent wit. Yet it is most respected for it's off beat plot and clever nature of opening up a business(an escort service)which will lead to an unlikely friendship and it shows one man that love is possible for anyone.Set in New York City you have ex Wall street guy Charles Lumley(Henry Winkler)who's a worried and uptight type who now makes his living at the city morgue on the night shift. Things change enter Billy Blazejowski(Michael Keaton in one of his earliest roles)who's hired to be Lumley's night shift partner. And Billy is an opposite as he's more a party animal and care free type who wants to change things and he comes up with a clever ideal. That is he gathers up a group of women and you guessed it they run an escort service for profit! Shelly Long stars as a working girl and strikes up a friendship and even a love making encounter with the uptight Lumley who breaks free of some of his tightness, which was needed especially when he had a sweet tooth wife who loved chocolate! In the end a lot is learned as unexpected love is discovered and all three form a bonding friendship that's memorable and should last so special when it seemed so unlikely. Overall good and well done comedy a now remembered classic.

michelemuciaccia beautiful but comics. It is useless, here you have paraocchi and unilateral ways of thinking. Some films from comics are rewarded while others are attacked, this film is like any other. this kind of movie derived from comic books do not convince many people. to me like, after all most recent film hollwood are based on comic books to produce them means that enjoy. Bel film cmq. Voting 5.7 indicates that on this site of horror films are seen evil. I ask minds indipenenti not to build the judgments of others and to reward and films but without being too strict. I would try to make a judgement more univoo since this site were underestimated masterpieces by Di caprio Titanic and Charlton Heston.

Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) This movie's got plenty of star power there. Henry Winkler of "Happy Days"; Shelly Long of "Cheers" fame; Michael Keaton way before "Beetlejuice" and "Batman". He was a total riot! Winkler plays Chuck Lumley, a lowly morgue attendant who used to work for Wall Street got stuck doing the night shift with a very wild and outlandish partner named Bill "Blaze" Blazejowski(Keaton) who happens to be businessman wannabe. Lumley has a next door neighbor named Belinda Keaton(Long) who happens to be a prostitute. She and several others needed a way to make the money, while avoid two pimps who taking more than their shares of the profits. The two morgue attendants decide to turn the city morgue into the ultimate brothel. They made the prostitutes dreams come true with items they can only imagine having. Lumley and Blaze call themselves, "Love Brokers", and it worked. The competition starts to heat up, and they get the surprise they'll never forget. Especially when the other's gun goes off prematurely on his foot! Though Lumley had a low key, but when Belinda came into his life, he became stronger and puts his foot down on those who pushed his aside. This movie delivers a sense of bolster, and self-assurance. It's a lot of fun, I enjoyed it very well. 3 out of 5 stars!
