Review by: CinemaSerf

I can't help but think that if some of the folks churning out the bad-ass "girl power" nonsense of the naughties were to look back at films like this; they might see a clear demonstration of what real girl power actually is... Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin and Dolly Parton are three working women at various stages of the corporate food chain - presided over by their womanising , parasitic boss Dabney Coleman. Initially suspicious of each other, they unite over some of Tomlin's teenage son's weed and decide to take matters into their own hands. What follows is at times a laugh-out-loud comedy as they manipulate and reek revenge on their hapless, helpless boss. It could never be called subtle, but it does illustrate clearly that wits and guile are more than enough to achieve their aims without the need for long fight scenes; flashing their flesh and/or continuous bad language. The title song isn't bad, ether...
