Goofy and overblown, but still hard to resist.

Laughs aplenty! Lemmon is hilarious!

Comedy masterpiece, and one of the few films to look at votes for women.

Everything a farce should be, played straight while being seriously silly.

Not a great film but one with some funny moments and line of stars.

This is one of those spectacular comedy star vehicles which is perfectly watchable on a wet Sunday afternoon but which, looked at from almost any other perspective, is just a waste of celluloid.

It's highly inventive, self-conscious camp, made in 1965, well before the genre wore itself out in superciliousness.

Jack Lemmon and Peter Falk save this overblown comedy that tries too hard to be too slapstick.

A monumentally epic disaster...

Perfect family movie is fun from beginning to end.

Lemmon plays it dirty throughout and for huge effect. Curtis underplays for equally comic effect. Wood comes through on a par with the two male stars.

Both panned and praised when it was released, this zany cross-continental romp zooms ahead full throttle for all of its 157 minutes.
