To be honest this film is quite corny, it has a farily predictable plot as well as a slightly clichéd script.
HOWEVER.It is a formula that, though predictable, works. It is a film that is very very funny. The comic timing of the two principal actresses is excellent, and the supporting cast also provide hearty and comedic performances that add to the general revelry of the film.
There are several hilariously funny scenes in this film, which coupled with the tried and tested 'mistaken identity' plot make 'Big Business' a film to watch over and over again.
Other points to note on this film;
The production is good. It is a classic 80's film - making it fresh and optimistic, even though the plot has be used many a time. The comic acting of Bette Midler and Lily Tomlin is excellent, Tomlin holds her ground very well next to Bette!!!
This film has a 3 star rating because;
-the film is a little predictable
- the script is a little clichéd

Format:DVD
This film is one of the funniest film's EVER!!!!!.
Bette Milder & Lily Tomlin are pure gold to watch.
It's got a really simple plot, In a small town of Jupiter Hollow, two sets of identical twins are born in the same hospital on the same night. One set to a poor local family and the other to a rich family just passing through. Then the story flashes forward to the 1980's where the mismatched sets of twins are about to cross paths following a big business deal to closedown the Jupiter Hollow factory. The film is shot in New York.
Bette Midler is Fxxxing brillant in this film and will have you laughing every second of this film as the poor Sadie,
"Sometime I find Myself So Bored I'm Just Praying For A UFO Sighting And I'll Stand Here And Say 'Come And Get Me Come Get Me'
Please Buy it.

If you like comedy and the optimistic humour of the eighties, this is for you. Bette Midler and Lily Tomlin really show thier comedic talent in this non-stop action comedy that has you yelling 'shes behind you' like a kid at a panto. I love it and any sane person will too.

Bette and Lily are a great comedy duo
A movie of two sets of twins mixed up at birth, one set brought up in the big city and the other in a sleepy town. Read more

Easy, old films
I love this film. it's complete nonsense but a laugh right from the start. If you're feeling low and need a giggle this is the one for you.

BIG BUISNESS
When I was a kid, I had a tape with Big Buisness and Beetlejuice on, recorded off the TV. Both COMPLETELY different movies but I loved and still love both of them. Read more

Big Business
While there was nothing essentially wrong with this film, it was dated, with a cliched plot, and it is true to say you knew the end within the first ten minuites. Read more
