Let The River Run - By: Jay, 21 May 2007 
Nearly twenty years on, this film has survived the test of time & exudes maximum effort from Harrison Ford, Melanie Griffith & Sigourney Weaver.They were alll at their peak at the time & it shoes. Melanie steals the show as the secretary who has to brave both the frying pan of a male dominated corporate world & the fire namely her idea stealing boss, Sigourney.
Though she isn't as qualified as her ivy league peers, she is just as astute, if not smarter. By playing her own little game, she starts to get noticed to the detriment of her crocked boss. It works but only just..and the Working Girl becomes the Working Boss. I remember a scene where Harrison is on the phone whilst simultaneously trying to remove his shirt...Classic !!! Also the classic tune, Let the River Run.

5 stars from me
Melanie Grifiths is fantastic in this film, however Sigourney steals the show with her hilarious self-centered comments. Love love love it!!
3 stars come together - By: , 18 Feb 2006 
I am pleased to offer a review of Working Girl. It comes under the heading of 'old but good' in my VHS collection & I will replace it as soon as it is released on DVD.
Working Girl sees three stars offering complementary performances. The script highlights the games needed to be played by women if they want to 'make it' in the male dominated world of business. Sigourney Weaver is at her powerful, bitchy, 'don't mess with me' best whilst Harrison Ford is not the action hero in this movie. He plays the guy in the middle but, sanity wins the day, as he helps long suffering Melanie Griffith, who plays Weaver's assistant, to gain her spurs in a male dominated profession once Weaver is out of action following injury. Sparks fly when Weaver finds out that her assistant has been successfully masquerading as herself in board rooms alll over the city....!! Definately one for the ladies.
