Jess ica What would his wife say? hmmm... let me think about that... what a thoughtful question. I'm guessing that she would probably say something along the lines of.... "Husband, you are an idiot and a complete loser. And... I want a divorce. Thanks for nothing." Thank god we have movies like this so we can see other people act completely immature and as impulsive as a two year that still sits in their feces until someone else changes their diaper. How sad it is that millions of people watch this garbage and begin to believe that it is suppose to be so funny to watch a sad pathetic man obsess over a complete stranger because he is frantically air humping at the thought of banging a woman he doesn't know, and lets not forget the "red" dress fetish.

pupo250 I get rid of American remake of brilliant European movies. Why not watch the original ? In this case the french movie is much more funny and also the actors are better chosen. And also the french title : "Un elephant SA -trompe- "énormément", contains such "finesse" that is impossible to translate in any other language. If you liked this movie, you never will enjoy an European movie. Just for the record; I'm a fan of Gene Wilder but he is so stupid and unbelievable The original is one of the best french comedies of the 20th century. pf this review is too long pf this review is too long don't know what ti write morepf this review is too long pf this review is too long don't know what ti write more

howardeisman If I were teaching a film course, I would show this disaster to start a discussion of why a film could be so bad. The story: Everyman type married guy with buddies who graduated with honors from stereotype school, is obsessed with a model (Kelly LeBrock) who looks like her plastic surgeon got badly distracted while stuffing her lips with some kind of very hard substance. Amazingly, he gets to first base, but... The story has been done many times, and this version is without surprises.The model is meant to induce more than mere desire. The audience has to feel her preternatural appeal for this movie to work. Unfortunately, she acts-and looks-like a robot. That kills the movie plot right there! Any redeeming features? No. No one has any witty lines. Gilda Radner would be funny, but her actions are too mean spirited to generate laughs.

RalphNumbers The fine line between comedy and tragedy is on display in this picture. This is a truly vile film. Comedy? Not even close. The message of this film is that everybody's a lying cheat and will never learn from their mistakes. A truly tragic pronouncement.Maybe the language barrier affected this adaptation of its French source material. The cultural insulation films receive by way of subtitles might have made this sad mess hysterical. Find a print in which the actors speak Mandarin with English subtitles and let me know whether it's zany, OK? Never knew an alleged comedy could be so depressing.
