Corrina, Corrina (1994)

Rating: 20%
Okay now here's another movie from the bag of VHS videos, Corrina, Corrina.

Plot: Manny and recently lost his wife, so he is looking for a nanny to take care of the house and his daughter Molly. So after a while, he hires one named Corrina. Through the events of the film, Corrina and Molly bond, which helps Molly after the loss of her mother.

This is not an original film. You get a good idea what happens throughout the film possibly close to right away. It's predictable, it's not all that funny, really if you enjoy family movies like this, that's fine, but it's not much of a film aside from that.

Acting/Characters:
Ray Liotta/Manny: He was okay. He was not a very original character, but he did alright considering the part he was given for this kind of film.
Whoopi Goldberg/Corrina: To be fair, I can see how the did have a sort of fun charm back in that time. I mean she was clever and had a cute personality.

Music: As far as score goes, it's not very original since this is a drama, comedy and romance movie in the 90's where we basically get the same kind of thing. But I liked the 50's songs that were played throughout the film, especially one that I'm familiar with since I work at the 50's restaurant.

Editing: The editing was okay, but some cuts needed to be done sooner than later. There were a couple of times where either they cut at a time that's a couple of seconds before we get the action the editor wanted from what was happening at that scene, and another point where after the action the editor wants from one scene, they just let the clip continue to where the character is just standing there for about a couple of seconds until we finally cut to the next scene.

And that's my review for Corrina, Corrina. It's not a very creative film, but if you want to see a cheesy movie as long as you're getting some sort of drama or comedy like this, this movie might be for you.
