Slow-moving comedy that fails to get much mileage from its tired central idea.
When this originally came out in the UK it was known as Filofax. For whatever reason, the DVD incarnation has been released with the name it was known as in the USA. Same great film though. Good fun, you can't help but like it.
One of the best comedies i have ever watched.
The on screen chemistry between stars James Belushi & Charles Grodin is second to none.
The plot always reminds me of Trading Places, so if you ever watched that then you will love this movie.
Rent it today, you will not regret it.
