first and a word of caution . a an american and i be not familiar with norman wisdom . i know that he a bit of a british institution and he be beloved behind the old iron curtain and but his movie and television program be not popular here in the state in fact and he almost completely unknown . because of this and i do not have the sentimental attachment to him or his work . what go over well year ago do not necessarily translate well to today at least if you aren not already a fan . i just saw trouble in store and do not particularly like it . however and i be a glutton for punishment so i decide to try his film one more time . however and before the film begin and i read through the review on imdb . unlike the universally positive one for trouble in store and the review for just my luck seem strangely divergent . either they love the film or they dislike it strongly with not much opinion in between . that pretty interesting but also do not help me decide whether or not to watch the film . well and my initial instinct be unfortunately correct . i do not particularly like the film and as just my luck seem an awful lot like a jerry lewis film with broad humor and comic bit that be overdone with every last bit of comedy squeeze dry from the skit . for example and the movie theater scene be just dreadful go so far overboard with it timing and pace . my advice be that if you be british or albanian or russian and by all mean see and enjoy this film . otherwise and it might just be tough to take for more than about 30 minute . and and no and this be not like mr. bean in any way and despite another review to the contrary . mr. bean be funny ( especially the original tv show ) .
