aliasstone Chevy Chase was his normal self and there were some humerous bits in the movie, but all in all I found the movie to be boring and not very funny at all. If you like Chevy then I guess its ok, but he's made better movies.
byroti I wasted 97 minutes of my life watching this crap. I only watched it because I am auditioning for the play at my local amateur theater. I am now truly re-considering going to the audition! This film was simply unfunny, not 1 laugh was had by me. I reckon Chevy Chase and all other cast members would want to remove this film from their resume. I think this carries the tradition of stage plays not transferring to film. Shame, it had a good cast on paper. Now I worry that if the movie is this unfunny that the play may also be unfunny. I se that the original author, Ray Cooney, was also a producer for the movie. He must have so many regrets now!
dobbin-4 Now Chevy Chase may not have done a classic comedy in this movie but this movie has got to be close to being a great comedy if not being a great comedy. The movie is about a guy who does the same boring thing every day and then mixes up a bag with a robber and finds himself rich. This movie has around 31 jokes in it and they are pretty much all funny and even though some are very hit and miss most of them are great enough to be classic Chevy Chase comedy. This movie is not quite as good as Fletch or Caddyshack but it is really quite good and overall I think that this movie is a really funny movie that deserves a high praise so I rate it 83% and under the reference of "watch at all costs" comedy.
Hollywood_Yoda This is a fantastic film! One of the funniest films I have seen since "Nothing to Lose (1997)". Chevy Chase stars as a down on his luck man working at a wax fruit company, where his idea was passed over ten years before, and the new "hotshot" is receiving the credit.His name is Henry Perkins, hes married, he works for a living, and he has just found $1 million dollars. What would you do with that much money? Certainly, you would pay off bills, but not Henry. His wife has just made a deal with an art manager, and they are on the brink of separation.At the party, which is for henry's birthday, there is total chaos. A cop who watched Henry's moves from where he found the money until he got home is asking questions. Henry and his wife's friends are there to have fun, and Henry has called a cab to leave.Its a great movie, and you will find yourself laughing at every turn.
