Thomas Drufke "10" is far from a masterpiece, in fact, it's much more of a goofy 70's rom-com than anything else, but there's a little bit more heart and quite a few more laughs than I thought there would be here. The film is about a man (played by Dudley Moore) going through a mid-life crisis as he realizes his age is creeping up on him as he's failing to provide a spark in his relationship with the one and only Julie Andrews. What follows feels like a movie made specifically for sexually deprived teenagers, but there's definitely a little bit more to it than that. George Webber (Moore) is a film composer recognized by everyone for his famous ballads, but he rarely shares an intimate moment with people for various reasons. Spending his nights desperate to find his music again and spying on his neighbor who consistently hosts sex parties, there's not a lot going for Webber. But when he stumbles upon a young newly married woman, things begin to change. The actual plot itself isn't the most interesting, especially as it consistently meanders into slapstick comedy. I mean, George literally has a mid-day fantasy of Bo Derek slowly running on a beach Baywatch style for over a minute. It's not exactly the most tightly written or directed feature. However, I did at least connect to the Webber character in part. His relationship to Andrews is touching at times, and I have a special place in my heart for film composers. Henry Mancini's score is another gem and it's definitely a film that can be enjoyed in the background if you turn your brain off for a few hours.6.4/10

Hitchcoc I do like Dudley Moore. He was a master musician, teacher, and comic. The problem was that his characters seem to bank on lowest common denominator efforts. Because most of us don't have the male credentials to entice someone like Bo Derek, we are left to only imagine. So what we have is a sad man who unhappy with what he has, making a fool of himself. It sets up another comedy by an odd looking little man, Gene Wilder, in The Woman in Red. The parts of the movie that are fun are the sight gags and pratfalls. This goes back to the roots of comedy, to the pathos of a Charlie Chaplain. But putting this into contemporary thought, we know it ain't gonna happen. Bo Derek is certainly quite the beauty, but other than the object of desire, doesn't have much to offer--or perhaps the plot doesn't. This is a pretty forgettable comedy, even with good intentions.

disdressed12 Blake Edwards directed this romantic comedy starring Dudley Moore and Julie Andrews.there's a lot of of nudity in the film all of it gratuitous,so if you if that's something that bothers you,you might want to avoid this one.without giving too much away, a lot of the comedy(though not all of it)revolves around the main character being drunk and acting silly.and there is some physical comedy as well.and i have admit,i laughed out loud a number of times.but i also thought a few of the comedic bits fell flat.the movie was also somewhat predictable and a bit too long,in my opinion.overall,though i found it entertaining enough to pass the time.for me,10 is 6/10

Arlis Fuson That Beatles song was mentioned but has nothing to do with anything, I just liked the quote it was used in so thats why I used it as my summary header.This is a movie about a songwriter hitting a midlife crisis and seeking things to make him feel young and alive again, only to realize life doesn't work that way and sometimes the best things are right in front of you.The acting was great here with Dudley Moore, Julie Andrews and Bo Derek. It might just be the best role any of them have done acting wise. The great Brian Dennehy was wonderful here as always as were Dee Wallace and many other supporting cast actors. The direction was by the infamous Blake Edwards who also wrote and he has his moments in film history, but his direction was only so-so here but that works fine for a love story.This is in fact a love story, a drama about life, lust and love and it has some very funny moments in it. I thought it was a comedy and although 30 years old, this was my first time seeing it. It had too much drama for me and too little laughs.I can see why people like it and would say its a good film, but my ratings are based on how I feel about it and in doing so I could only give it a 3. I didn't love it, didn't hate it, it was a tad too long and had too much lovey dovey crap for my taste. I will also never want to see it again, and a movie that is not re-watchable usually gets low ratings from me.
