This screwball comedy does have a rough start, but the humor lands more often as it goes along. Sylvester Stallone is an odd fit for this kind of comedy. But he does get some laughs. The cast includes people who are good at being funny like Tim Curry, Marisa Tomei, and Peter Riegert.

I thought it was an ok movie. It was funny, and entertaining, in some parts. I love Stallone.

This is one John Landis movie that isn’t broadcast on Comedy Central regularly, and for no good reason. It’s no Coming to America, but scads better than Spies Like Us. Albeit predictable at times, there are enough (dare I say?) clever bits to merit a screening – it’s a farce, after all. Plus, Stallone does slapstick much better than cop-buddy. Harry Shearer (recognizable from This is Spinal Tap and A Mighty Wind; also the voice of Montgomery Burns, Ned Flanders, Dr. Hibbert…) plays an Italian seamster who measures Stallone’s inseam with expected results.
