Owen (Danny DeVito) is a momma's boy with a very
strange Momma (Anne Ramsey): she's a cross between Quasimodo and the Wicked
Witch of the West, and Owen's spent a lifetime making her meals, cutting
her toenails and getting crunched by her cane. Then, one day, along comes
Larry (Billy Crystal) ...and Owen sees the path to possible salvation.
Larry's having female
problems of his own...in the form of an ex-wife (Kate Mulgrew) who's really
done him wrong. So, taking his cue from a Hitchcock thriller, Owen suggests
they swap murders. After all, what are friends for? He'll murder Larry's
lying, loathsome, conniving ex-wife--if Larry will only send Momma to her
maker. |
