Editorial Review:
Bette Midler (THE FIRST WIVES CLUB, BEACHES) and Lily Tomlin (DISNEY'S THE KID, ALL OF ME, 9 TO 5) -- the first ladies of laughter -- star in this critically acclaimed box office hit about two sets of identical twins who are mismatched at birth. Forty years later, their paths cross amid the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, and the result is unrestrained pandemonium. New York's opulent Plaza Hotel is the setting for a wildly hilarious, classic case of mistaken identities, split personalities, and double trouble! With the unparalleled comedic talents of Midler and Tomlin, two's company ... four's a riot!

2009-01-07 - Lily Tomlin and Bette Midler and this movie are as funny now as they were when it came out. The price was right, and now I own it. Perfect.
BIG BUISNESS
2008-12-17 - When I was a kid, I had a tape with Big Buisness and Beetlejuice on, recorded off the TV. Both COMPLETELY different movies but I loved and still love both of them.
Big Buisness is one of THE funniest movies I have EVER seen, I NEVER get bored in the slightest watching it. I will say that Lily Tomlin is great as Rose (both twins) but Bette Midler steals the show and makes Big Buisness the movie that it is, I would actually say that Bette Midler and Sandra Bullock are equal as THE best comedy actresses EVER, her character, Sadie (again, both twins) is hilarious!
The movie starts with an upper class set of parents and a lower class set of parents both going to the hospital to have their kids, they end up in a very small and basic hospital and the nanny mixes the two sets of twins up. The upper class twins end up running a very successful buisness which was their Dad's and the lower class set of twins end up trying to save their home town getting destroyed, except the upper class Rose and the lower class Sadie aren't completely happy with their lives and both want to do the exact opposite of what they're doing, it was as if they were seperated at birth, ha ha.
That's the basic storyline but it really is a brilliant comedy, Bette Midler may have a good voice and made a classic song with "Wind Beneath My Wings" but she is at her best when she is making a comedy movie.
5 stars out of 5.
