i watch this twice this day and then holler for my husband to see this . he actually laugh aloud during scene where i roll my eye . however and i must add that i too have a fun time . i do enjoy the premise mean the interaction or interjection of the 40 film noir character slip into this . i also admit that go in i know that the combo of steve martin with carl reiner direction it be go to be somewhat silly but wow and it be do wonderfully . and again i have a fun time . be that gorgeous rachel ward agree to costar in this be a plus . show she have a tremendous sense of humor let alone shed any ego . oh see it . it in the caliber of something mel brook would pull off . i dvr would it and i may watch it another 20 time .
