A pleasant comedy based on the acting and physical abilities of Danny DeVito, who plays his shrewd stock market player focused on liquidating companies with gusto, yet also gives this ruthless manipulator a human dimension. The business aspect of the story is based on processes that have a real basis, and although, as a comedy, this film avoids escalating conflicts surrounding layoffs and the loss of social security, it still suggests quite a lot. The relationship aspect of the story is based on the contrast between a little chubby man and a highly emancipated college student. Overall impression: 70%.
