Leave your thoughts about The Barefoot Executive.
| The Seattle TimesJohn VoorheesIn this genial but strained and arch frolic, the one real joke is not only "in" but it wears thin and even frantic. |
| Capital Times (Madison, WI)Rob ThomasA trenchant satire on corporate greed . . . oh, not really. Funny, silly chimp movie. |
| User ReviewTyler SA no hoper becomes a TV Exec after meeting a Monkey who can pick the best TV pilots. With the best theme music ever. Listen closely. |
| User Reviewgary twow umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good movie 2 watch....its got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie....i think that alan hewitt, harry morgan, hayden rorke, john riitter, joe flynn, heather north, kurt russell, wally cox play good roles/parts throughout this movie.....i think that the director of this comedy/drama/kids/family movie had done a good job of directing this movie because you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie......im shocked that kurt russell looks so young in this movie.....i think that this is a good family/comedy movie 2 watch with a good cast throughout this movie |
| User ReviewMegan SIt's got a chimp...how can you go wrong? |
| User ReviewReuben PGreat satire about the quest for ratings. |
| User ReviewChristopher BGreat premise - which I'm tempted to believe is based on real events. A great supporting cast which wasn't used to potential. |
| User ReviewTania CWorth the watch, especially for a young John Ritter. |
| User ReviewBenjamin KNot too bad a movie. Kurt Russel messes it up. |
| User ReviewScott KKurt Russell is good and the monkey is funny good clean comedy |
