Bogdanovich revives the screwball comedy. Which was nice for those who love(d) this type of humor I guess, personally I'm not a big fan. It's a style that seems to mistake ruckus and nervousness for actual comedy. To be submitted to that for 90 minutes can be quite grating, which describes this film pretty well for me.
The performances are actually quite decent here, it's just a bummer that the actors have little to work with. The dialogues are bland, the jokes are dim, and the plot isn't interesting in the least. It's a good thing the film is relatively short, even then it grossly overstays its welcome. Not great.
