ChikPapa Very disappointed :(

CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Charles Herold (cherold) I have fond memories of this movie from when it came out, so all these years later I decided to watch it again, and I still really like it. It's very silly, but it's reasonably funny and the Indiana-Jones-style adventure aspects are pretty well done.The big surprise of the movie when it came out was Cyndi Lauper as a wacky psychic who dresses like a very colorful hooker. She was surprisingly effective as an actress, even though she was simply playing her basic persona. She and Goldblum make one of the most atypical Hollywood romantic couples I think I've ever seen. I won't call this a great comedy, but it is a hugely likable one.

freddy3980 I know its a cheesy movie, but overall it was entertaining and fun. I'm also Ecuadorian and I come from the place where they shoot the film, Cojitambo (Cañar, Ecuador). This movie brings good memories for me, since I can see some known people from my village and my elementary school.daria84 says "they showed an awesome footage of Ambato (a City located in the highlands) in the end of the movie when Sylvia is out in the balcony", let me tell you that's not Ambato, but that's Cojitambo's Hill shot from Azogues. If you don't believe me, search online for "Cojitambo" and you will see.

kittiwake-1 Jeff Goldblum. Say the name, and most of the time, you'll find yourself thinking about the B-quality movies he has made. This is one of them, but it's fun. If you can handle Cyndi Lauper's voice. If you can handle a pretty bad script. If you can set aside your realism. You might like this one. I just enjoyed the humor. You can get that pretty much anywhere, right? So, if you just want a funny movie, maybe you can find better. But if you want to see one of Cyndi Lauper's few movies, one of Goldblum's most-likely-not-to-be-listed-among-movie-credits (except for possibly Earth Girls are Easy) movies, then sit back and enjoy. I liked the beginning. Lots of "psychic" humor. Also one of the first movies I ever saw Steve Buscemi in. (If you're a Steve Buscemi fan, maybe you'll like it just because you get to see him for a bit.) Whatever floats your boat.

LesHalles Every time I see this film I find it hilarious. The film-makers have great resumes, much of them in TV. The cast includes comic masters Falk and Goldblum, and Lauper does a great job in one of her first roles; these are little gems of comic performances. Peter Falk is nearly as funny here as he is in _The In-Laws_. Sands and Gress are great as well.The plot moves along briskly and the action/adventure/travel side of the film works on its own as well as framing the humor. The romance is like something from screwball comedy.So why did the film get such a cold reception? I think this film has done so poorly because the humor depends on being familiar with new-age religion, psychics, channels, ESP, magic, etc. The script lampoons the kind of new-age/psychic phenomena popular in Hollywood. The target audience- those who are familiar with such things and at the same time don't take them too seriously- must only include the three writers.Although the film appears cynical and pessimistic about people, it cheers me way up. It has the same uplifting effect as another under-rated comedy masterpiece, _Into The Night_, also featuring Jeff Goldblum.Films like _The Matrix_ and _Star Wars_ are sometimes praised for communicating a philosophical and spiritual message. While those films certainly wear philosophical robes, I suspect they are actually driven by motives of greed, violence and melodrama. On the other hand, _Vibes_ and _Into the Night_ are both low-key, pessimistic, even cynical films that paradoxically seem to be driven by an inner engine of warmth and insight that can give viewers a real lift instead of hollow thrills.If you like _Vibes_ try another way-out-there under-rated comedy, _Simon_ (1980) with Alan Arkin.
