Not brilliant, but definitely underrated. The fact that Isabelle Adjani is in this film makes it automatically worth watching.

I wasn't expecting it to be any good, but I didn't think it could be as bad as its horrific reputation. I was wrong. This film isn't just not funny, its excruciatingly so as it tries desperately to wring out a laugh while trudging through a bloated, pointless thriller plot. Not even entertaining in a "so bad it's good" kind of way, just irritating and painfully boring.

While nowhere near as great as May's The Heartbreak Kid or Mikey and Nicky, this film is hilarious and more brilliantly satirical than Dr. Strangelove, If May simply stopped directing due to personal reasons, more power to her. If this underrated film killed her career behind the camera, shame on Hollywood, as usual.

I'd love to see an even longer version of this wonderful film.

This is a great movie - though i think it would have been better at around 90 minutes - nonetheless - it is a great movie with some of the cleverest dialogue since the Hope and Crosby films it emulates. Also worth noting is the hilarious bad music. Ishtar - "its a state of mind"!

This film is funnier than most people would imagine. Why this is so underrated, and scoffed at, I'll never know.
