Plenty of reviewers have pointed out that Tony Randall seems to have turned Poirot into Clousseau.
I'm going to suggest he's doing Poirot as Jacques Tati in Mon Oncle or Monsier Hulot's Holiday.
In any event, it's less funny then either of those celebrated ''French" characters. And I was too aggravated by Randall's try-hard act (and poor grasp of his accent) to care whether he solved the murder mystery.
the more Tony Randall movies I see the more I realize that his true calling was television, where he was unparalleled.
