7/10
Not a dick move(e)

Warning: Spoilers
Not nearly as bad as I was expecting this was actually quite enjoyable for most of its running time. It feels like a typical 60's comedy that's been sexed up for the 70's.

It has several things going for it including a nice mix of Italian, English and American involvement. A fairly major role for John Cleese as well as more minor roles for Graham Chapman and Tim Brooke Taylor.

Ann Bell future star of Tenko also has a good part in it.

One very funny scene in the film as David Niven inadvertently inventing the dick pic which has to be seen to be believed.

It go's a bit crazy towards the end with a generous helping of nudity but sorts itself nicely right at the end.
