Frankie and Johnny 7/10
A romantic comedy/drama starring Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer. Pacino's character is a little bit too needy and cloying, but Pfeiffer puts in a great performance as someone who has emotionally closed themselves off after successive abusive partners. Some might say, and they did at the time, that Pfeiffer is far too beautiful to play the lonely, dowdy waitress that she portrays in this film, and to a point she is, but her performance outweighs that complaint.
Pacino and Pfeiffer also benefit from some great supporting cast, especially Kate Nelligan as their man-hungry co-worker.
