I found the film to be somewhat predictable, and unfocused, as to what it was trying to be. Serio-comic movies are difficult to pull off to begin with, and this one fails overall! Some of the dialog sparkles, but much just lays there, and although only about an hour and a half long by the midpoint the viewer can easily surmise how it will all wind up! Ray's first picture, and possibly the reason he was often typecast as a lunk head. Overall mostly forgettable!
