Hit-and-mostly-miss retro comedy.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Fresh
A light comedy, pure and simple (and hardly unfamiliar), but its makers sustain its energy through the unraveling of an intricate plot and bring to it a certain edge through a witty, sharp sense of observation.
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Rotten

It gets by on personality.
