Description by Buena Vista Home Entertainment:

Blame It On The Bellboy

In the wildly entertaining spirit of A FISH CALLED WANDA, BLAME IT ON THE BELLBOY delivers the year's craziest laughs! Featuring an all-star cast, the hilarity kicks off when a daffy bellboy (Bronson Pinchot -- TV's PERFECT STRANGERS) accidentally switches the itineray envelopes for three guests (Dudley Moore, ARTHUR, Bryan Brown, COCKTAIL, and Richard Griffiths, HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S STONE). His actions cause a hilarious case of mistaken identities, sending the trio down a road of comic nonstop adventures! Check in today for a zany time where mix-ups, mishaps, madness, and mayhem are all part of the service -- and just the beginning of the fun!

Plot Synopsis:

A bumbling bellboy, working at a hotel in Venice, somehow manages to mix up the mail and messages of three of the hotel's guests: a mafia hitman, a timid realtor, and a vacationing lothario who's just set up a blind date with a sexy young woman. Comic hijinks ensue as a tangled and slightly dangerous series of blunders emerge from the three cases of mistaken identity.
