Groucho Reviews

It's not all about wacky disguises and goofy aliases. At its core, the film is a top notch mystery thriller.

A breezy, peppy frolic and a tour de force for Chase.
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Fast-paced and witty, this is Chase's best solo venture to date, and will hold almost anyone's attention for its well-edited 98 minutes.

Michael Ritchie's 1985 mystery comedy has the pleasant, modest feel of a Fox B picture from the 30s.

Lawrence Journal-World
One of the more quotable comedies of the 1980s
| Original Score: 4/5
A lightweight, breezy experience that, by never pretending to be anything more than what it is, disarms criticism.
Hollywood Bitchslap
Moments of humor that still have legs today. And many moments that don't.
| Original Score: 3/5
New Times
One of Chevy Chase's better comedies, which admittedly ain't saying a whole lot.
| Original Score: 3/5
Netflix
A sparkling light comic mystery of the kind that Hollywood doesn't make anymore -- pity.
