: I waited 30 years to see this film...I was 19 in 1970 when it came out and having heard how funny it was when it came out and reading the reviews here, I finally rented it and watched it. I didn't laugh once - a very unfunny flick - and I usually love Reiner. I cannot for the life of me figure why this is seen as funny. I had not one chuckle. And I love comedies! Oh well, at least now I know what all the shouting was about. Not my idea of a comedy. I enjoy black comedy that is funny - Rocky Horror, Ruthless People, Mr. Wrong, Titus, the Simpsons come to mind, but honestly I really don't get the appeal of this movie. It bored me completely.
