Clyde Gilmour Maclean's Magazine A good basic idea is overdeveloped and finally goes to waste in this Hollywood comedy. Dec 11, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

William W This is not a serious movie--It is one of the madcap style movies of it's era. I found it quite fun. The story line would never fly today with all the political correctness. (most of which is a good thing) Watch it with the thought of when it was made and the social rules of it's day. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review Steve D Thinly plotted and lives up to its name. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/16/23 Full Review james g Unfortunately, this one has the perfect title. I've seen worse, hence an entire one-star rating. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
