Synopsis
Released at the height of his popularity on
Family Ties
and in the wake of
Back to the Future
and
Teen Wolf
, Michael J. Fox stars in this "country boy in the big city" comedy, directed by
Herbert Ross
. After making the move from Kansas to New York City, Brantley Foster (Fox) secures a job in the mailroom at his uncle's large corporation. Doffing any plans of working his way up the corporate ladder the old fashioned way, Brantley begins impersonating an executive to impress a high-ranking female co-worker, played by
Helen Slater
. Once his oversexed aunt enters the mix, Brantley finds himself juggling two identities, two jobs, and two women. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide
