OMG, Jumpin' Jack Flash is SO Underrated!

Okay, so I was digging through some 80s comedies last night and re-watched "Jumpin' Jack Flash" starring Whoopi Goldberg and I totally forgot how FUN this movie is! Seriously, has anyone else seen it? I remember catching it on cable a million times as a kid. It's got that classic "average person gets caught up in something way bigger than themselves" plot, but with Whoopi being hilarious as Terry, the computer operator at the bank . Like, the scene where she's trying to decode the messages and ends up accidentally ordering a bunch of random stuff? Gold. And then she gets involved with spies and all this crazy international espionage stuff! It's totally silly and over-the-top but in the best way possible. Plus, the fashion! OMG, the 80s are strong with this one. Shoulder pads for DAYS. I know some people probably think it's cheesy or whatever, but I honestly think it's a really fun, light-hearted movie. It's perfect for a night when you just wanna chill and not think too hard. Plus young Jonathan Pryce is in it, which is a nice bonus. Totally worth a watch if you're a fan of 80s comedies or just wanna see Whoopi Goldberg being awesome. Did anybody else love this one or am I stuck in the past, lol?
