Trivia:

Originally scripted as taking place in New York City. The movie prepped for two months and shot 6 weeks in New York. On the last night of location filming, Peter Bogdanovich received a phone call from his agent at about midnight letting him know he was being replaced as director. After reviewing footage with the replacement director, it was determined that none of the New York footage was usable and the script was rewritten to be shot entirely in Los Angeles. more

Not a patch on 'Silver Streak' or 'Stir Crazy'., 29 April 2001
Author: Comberman from Northern Ireland

Another turn out for the Pryor/Wilder duo which does have some funny scenes and amusing dialogue. However, Another You does drag its heels and seems to lose its way halfway through. Just a little too slapstick and not a patch on the fantastic 'Silver Streak' and very funny 'Stir Crazy. I'll give it a 5.
