"🎥🎞️ Another favorite flick from the #1980s archives. Prolly only a 3-star movie now, but who didn’t love Whoopi back in the 80s (and 90s)?? Ghost, The Color Purple, Sister Act I and II.
▪️Not a traditional romantic comedy, JUMPIN’ JACK FLASH (1986) has elements of #suspense, #action, and some light romance. The film’s appeal lies in Whoopi Goldberg's #witty, charismatic performance, full of sharp humor and #clever one-liners. It blends #action and #comedy, with Terry (Whoopi) finding herself in various dangerous and #hilarious situations as she tries to help a British spy. 🕵️♂️ The romantic aspect is honestly very subtle, but the chemistry between Terry and the spy who uses the code name “Jack” (Jonathan Pryce) adds a sweet undertone to this #action_packed story.
