This movie is incredibly bad. Watching this film nearly inspired me to leave the auditorium and complain to the manager.
Teaming Pryor and Wilder seemed to guarantee laughs when you consider their performances in the exceptional films, Silver Streak and Stir Crazy. Their chemistry began to sour in See No Evil, Hear No Evil. In Another You, their comedic attempts are no match for this rancid script and storyline.
At some points in the film, the dialog is so bad that the actors seem embarrassed saying their lines. Wilder gives an over-the-top performance that became the watermark for his later films (Haunted Honeymoon, Funny About Love).
This film tries to be a silly comedy but insults the audience with terrible situations (an intolerable yodeling scene) and an excruciating script.
An unfortunate error for these comedic legends.
Bottom line: Rent Silver Streak of Stir Crazy
