This movie was horrible. Sure there are worse films but no film in recent history has wasted a better cast than this and that is why I rate it so low. Cleese, Kingsley, Lumley,Hoskins and frickin Oliver Reed! plus Diana Rigg!!!! this thing has a dream cast!... I was gobsmacked by the director's (Michael Winner) ability to convince talent to be in this thing- he must have some sort of hypno-mind control superpower or something because if the film is a legitimate representation of the script then you'd need mind control to get any sane person to commit. then there's poor Chris Rea, a true first timer with a single, pathetic mode of delivery. he struggles with the inane material as best he can but never actually hits more than this one note. He may have actually had a shot at a career if someone with a little directing skill had helped him out! This is one of those prime examples of "it ain't how good you are it's who you know." and Michael Winner seems to know a lot of people.
