Melanie Griffith, aka the most adorable actress of the '80s/'90s, pretends to be Jewish so she can nail a murderous diamond thief in a Hasidic community.
Pretty corny Jewsploitation (which I guess was a thing in the '90s). The "tough" mafioso extortionist red herrings that show up look like Jim Belushi and Steven Segal. I guess they were supposed to be intimidating, but they came out more like Fat Tony. Good for a laugh.
Not too much action. Lots of sap. But after Something Wild and Cherry 2000 (shut up, it's a fun movie), I'm willing to forgive Melanie Griffith for pretty much anything.
Oh, and the girl from Ferris Bueller's Day Off is in it.
I give it two and a half Stars of David.
