FANTASTIC!
By a customer from London, England , 08 Feb 2006[Highly rated reviewer]
A great film! As soon as I watched it, I searched on the Internet to buy it. The music within the film matches the tone and vibe perfectly. Your feet will be tapping all the way through.
It will have you smiling, guessing and sad that it is over!

(4)Not too funny but OK
By RJNeb2 (924 reviews) from London , 14 Jul 2012Imitating some of the silly Blake Edwards spy spoofs of the 60s, this amiable comedy finds Bill Murray arriving in London and taking part in what he thinks is an experimental theatre piece but is actually espionage gone wrong. Contrivances abound and its all very stock cliché but Murray and the rest of the cast seem to be having fun and its all pretty harmless.- Was this review helpful to you?

The film's title is the only funny thing here
By MikeyMouse (39 reviews) from West Drayton , 12 Sep 2011The first thing that hits you, and perhaps the killer blow, is the title. It sounds quite funny, perhaps a direct allusion to the Hitchcock twice-made film The Man Who Knew Too Much, but no, it fails to really satirise this specifically. With this error the movie becomes an ill-defined medley of Dirty Harry and Bond and well of course Murray mannerisms. As it was Bill Murray I gave the film fair latitude - but my verdict: instantly disappointing. There are too few gags to string the work together. Now Peter Sellers would have shaken up and invigorated the character(s) no end - there's nobody of such calibre to find here. But even Sellers couldnt work without a tighter focus for the comic antics - what about Hitchcock films of course, what else? The missed clue was in the title it should have been a no brainer.- Was this review helpful to you?

Slow to start - but becomes a roller coaster of laughs!
By tunnelweb (188 reviews) from Hamilton , 02 Sep 2008Although slow to start, and cringe-worthy for the first 30 minutes, it's worth persevering, as the humour really reaches critical mass, and it's a roller coaster of laughs from there 'til the end. It's unoriginal - as it must be, given it's a spoof/satire. Of course, Bill Murray is totally excellent!- Was this review helpful to you?
