Because Simon is dealing with a place -- and a commonplace -- rather than people, it is only too easy to see the jokes coming long before they arrive. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Exasperating--should be called 'Down-n-Outers.'

It is the closest the sound film has come to recapturing the genius of the silent movie chase comedy. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- Jack Lemmon, Sandy Dennis, and a gritty New York City make this worth watching. Full Review

Rating: 60/100 -- Even with the normally loveable Jack Lemmon as its star and a script from Neil Simon, it's a dreary bore.

Product Description:

Up for a prestigious promotion, middle-class businessman George Kellerman (Jack Lemmon) travels from Ohio to New York City with his wife Gwen (Sandy Dennis), hoping to enjoy a bit of fun and relaxation in the Big Apple before the job interview. But the Midwestern couple's dream vacation turns into an urban nightmare as they experience a seemingly endless series of travel mishaps: diverted flights, lost luggage, missed trains, cancelled hotel reservations, muggers in Central Park, unfriendly locals, and even a police chase or two. This hilarious, fish-out-of-water comedy was penned by playwright Neil Simon specifically for the big screen and boasts a comically frenetic pace, hilarious performances from the harried leads, and a glimpse into the gritty urban reality of 1970s New York.
