Short Review

An intriguing story with a rewarding plot and fun dialogue. Had the lead role been cast with someone at least 15 years younger, the whole movie would have deserved more than 3.5 stars. The role of Jack Drake needed someone like David Niven or Cary Grant. I can't imagine what the film studio who made this was thinking.
