I don't know what ANYONE was thinking, in doing this movie. Sylvester Stallone (Sly) had a pretty good career going in the action genre, when he let loose with this stinker.
A tough detective's mother comes to visit him, and promptly starts trying to "fix" his life, much to his embarrassment. For his birthday she buys him a machine gun out of the back of a van, and begins to further interfere with his job and love life, eventually "helping" him with a current case.
Estelle Getty is adorable as the irascible curmudgeonly mom, and Stallone is average as a detective on the edge, but this whole thing came off like a terrible idea, hence the horrid ratings it has received here at IMDb. Believe me, it's earned it.
This is just terrible and SO not funny. It's just kind of sad that Estelle Getty was wasted on this crap.
It rates a 2.8/10 from....
