Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Beauty-school teacher Fran Drescher, basically reprising her television role in The Nanny, is whisked out of Queens and deposited in Eastern Europe after she is mistaken for a science teacher. Timothy Dalton is the gruff and stilted president for life she tames with mousse and kindness. Drescher, with that inimitable voice and colorful clothing, is very funny. It is not a far stretch to compare her favorably with Lucille Ball. The script, however, matches her bubbly humor with nothing but clunkiness. A mild diversion, this is one of many Hollywood comedies that works just fine on video. --Rochelle O'Gorman

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Nice
Liked the series " The Nanny" thought this might be funny... It was, worth watching.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beautician and the Beast
This movie is a family favorite. We've watched it so much on VHS that we had to get a DVD. PG rated, it's a comedy about a ruler from a land of tyrants and a hairdresser from Queens, New York. Fran Drescher is hilarious and though Timothy Dalton starts out a little gruff, he ends of becoming sweet and adorable. A wonderful movie that leaves you with that feel good feeling.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Cheaper elsewhere!
Awesome movie, but you can save $80 or more by doing a quick web search.






Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Sorry Fran
You are wonderful on The Nanny, but this movie just didn't do much for me.. nor my neices. I think we all fell asleep right at the beginning. A for effort.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A MUST SEE MOVIE
Fran Drescher is a gifted, overlooked actress who shines in this "happily ever after" love story. This movie had my attention from beginning to end, without violence, profanity, or sex scenes! Imagine that!
