this movie really start strong . we know that roberts be an atlanta hotshot send to australia to fix coke marketing problem . we also know he be an eccentric genius . robert fine act convinces u of this rather quickly . unfortunately and the plot be so flimsy and that whatever fine character development have be achieve and it be negate by void and inconsistency and and downright bore film sequence . usually and i be a sucker for bold and far out plot . example which i be fond of include and dark star and o. c. and stiggs and and popeye . couple with the fact that i must admit that this film be well act and it surprise even myself that i can not recommend this film . the utter breakdown in this movie occur about midway through the film . all comedy be instantly lose and the film turn dark . afterwards and the film plod along . the film attempt to get the comedy roll again be not successful . more surprise await the viewer and they be darker still . to be sure and mixing drama with comedy can be a formula for success . however and with this movie and the result be about as successful a new coke .
