Seen it? Don't pass judgement on something you have not seen.Saw it and hated it? Why am I not surprised?
Too populist for you and Victor? Too modern? Too fun?
Follow Ups:
I have seen it. And it is a very weak comedy, S.Martin at his weakest moment, when he tries to be comical but on the vulgar so called popular side.( your words )
His finest were in L.A. Story or in " Rotten Scoundrels ".
Jose Ferrer version? Never like it. One that can be good speak of, is the one with Depardieu and my personaly best is an Italian silent version of it.
In any case try a dialogue.PS: This answer is not meant at any kind of personal attack, just a discussion, where every one of us has something to learn, about films.
...with Ferrer.The price was about right - $4 for a used DVD. Also ordered the Scaramouche... don't know why, will probably kick myself for that, but I loved it when I was a teen. I suspect it will be a very boring vewing... but who knows!
The one with Steward Granger? Mon Dieu! That is along time ago! Let me know if it stand through the time / test!
I did send you THE Email......
Got the mail, check the response.
Done!

All misses. Try simply: Not Very Good Film.
Man... you ARE wearing your insecurity on your sleave!
It's a perfectly fine film. No classic, but enjoyable for what it is, a simple update of a classic story.Hey, look! I explained something about a movie. You should try it some time instead of making blanket statements like "Not Very Good Film" so people understand WHY you feel that way.
Please explain why this makes me insecure, Doctor K.
And is that the only respopnse you can make to my post? To say Roxanne wasn't very good? I tghought we were talking about something else, something deeper and juicyer . . .
***And is that the only respopnse you can make to my post?No. This is the only response I WILL make to your post.
***I tghought we were talking about something else, something deeper and juicyer . . .
Well, perhaps you were under that impression. I always respond to posts that get me interested.
Perhaps some other time?

Well, you asked me a very specific question ("So please tell me, what is America about?") which I took the time to answer. You have nothing to say? You show me considerable dishonor.
