Hello Again (1987)
5/10
Watchable, but nothing outstanding...
16 July 2022
I had never actually heard about this 1987 fantasy comedy titled "Hello Again" from writer Susan Isaacs and director Frank Perry. But having loved watching "Cheers" and always found Shelley Long to be an enjoyable performer back in the day, then of course I opted to sit down and watch "Hello Again" here in 2022, as I had the opportunity.

The storyline was adequate, however, I must admit that the movie as a whole was somewhat bland and mediocre. It wasn't a particularly thrilling movie, and the comedy in the movie was far in between. So I will say that I wasn't overly entertained by this 1987 movie. Sure, it was watchable for what it turned out to be, however I had not been missing out on a cinematic gem here.

The acting performances in the movie were fair enough. The movie actually has a good cast ensemble, with the likes of Shelley Long, Judith Ivey, Gabriel Byrne, Sela Ward and Corbin Bernsen. So yeah, you have a handful of very familiar 1980s stars here.

While I managed to sit through "Hello Again" in its entire 96 minutes, I was only mildly entertained by it. However, I doubt that I will ever return to watch this movie a second time.

My rating of "Hello Again" lands on a five out of ten stars.
