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.

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

Perfect family movie is fun from beginning to end.

Goofy and overblown, but still hard to resist.

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

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

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

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

Laughs aplenty! Lemmon is hilarious!

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.

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