This is one of the made-for-TV exploits based upon the Amy Fisher/Joey Buttafuoco teen-sex story which stirred up a U.S. media feeding frenzy in 1992. (Amy, having become Joey's young lover, tried to eliminate his real-life wife) Drew Barrymore stars as Amy in this accounting which contains some pretty sizzling sex scenes apparently shot with a Barrymore look-alike. ~ All Movie Guide

Andy Tennant's made-for-television movie The Amy Fisher Story, starring Drew Barrymore, comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that preserves the original broadcast aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. There are neither subtitles nor closed-captions on this release. Supplemental materials include deleted footage. This is a decent release from Anchor Bay. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
