The title, as well as the presence of Peter Sellers and Goldie Hawn, may lead you to expect a comedy. As a comedy, this movie fails completely. Nothing in this movie even made me smile, let alone laugh. The story is a combination of comedy and drama, but the movie can't decide which way it wants to go. Sellers is miscast as a womanizing TV show host. Goldie is OK as a young "free spirit." She becomes "involved" with Sellers, who is more than twice her age. Goldie's nude scene was a disappointment. Absolutely shot from the wrong angle. Goldie doesn't necessarily need to remove her clothes to hold my attention. But, since she did remove her clothes here, why not let us see the whole package?! Basically, the movie is about whether she will stay with Sellers or go back to her boyfriend, who is even more of a jerk. Overall, the movie just doesn't work. Peter Sellers and Goldie Hawn are likeable actors playing unlikeable characters. That's the problem.
