A smile here and there
30 September 2013
This film just doesn't quite make it. It is worth a smile here and there, but there are no laughs. The story isn't compelling. It is just a structure to hang comic bits on. Fine. But the comic bits are old and their timing is a bit off. Eric Idol and John Cleese are what you would expect, but no more than that.

Barbara Hersey is a problem. She plays a nympho middle aged woman and an aristocrat. This combination was supposed to be funny but it wasn't. She overdid the sexy part to the point where it was neither erotic nor funny.

I have a feeling that there is an inside story on why this wasn't better than it is.
