Summary: One of my all-time favorite comedies
Review: A winner in all respects--great music, beautiful scenery, snappy screenplay, perfect comic timing, absolutely hilarious. Michael Caine is fabulous. Steve Martin's best movie to date. Anytime I need some cheering up, I just pop it in the VCR and it does the trick. Thank you for making such a delightful movie.

Summary: One of the best films by Steve Martin
Review: This move is one of the best by Steve Martin. It is the story of two con artists; one who plays the role of a prince tring to free his enslaved people and another, the amateur con artist. This movie is very funny and I have seen at least four times....

Summary: A comedy that gets funnier with every viewing
Review: A seemingly overlooked movie that is one of the best I've seen. Steve Martin and Michael Caine are each perfect in their roles. The twist at the end should surprise you as well. I just wish the DVD itself had more special features.

Summary: This is a great movie.
Review: This movie was hilarious. Steve Martin and Michael Caine played off each other perfectly! Caine plays the straight guy who torments Martin.(Although, Caine has a scene that is so perfect!) He is playing a doctor that must test Martin's professed paralysis! It was a classic scene! Martin plays a very convincing idiot in the movie as well! Get the movie! This movie is clean,too, so you can watch it with your kids or parents (without fast-forwarding or muting)!

Summary: Monkey Boy
Review: Why do I love this movie so much? Clever dialogue, twists, predictable, yes but still funny, elegant setting, odd ball pairing, bad French accents...What more can you ask for in a movie. I love it all, especially Martin as Ruprecht, and the reactions he elicits. Michael Duranko

Summary: Priceless Match of Wits
Review: The script is flawless and the roles played exquisitely by Michael Caine, Steve Martin and Glenne Headly.
Fred Benson (Steve Martin) has developed some expertise in swindling the small game - getting women basically to pay him a dinner. He is loud, uncultured and proud of his achievement. He has even managed to get publicity for his misdeeds in newspapers.
He realizes that he has much to learn when he steps on the territory, French Riviera, of Laurence Jamieson (Michael Caine), suave, cultured, classy European, who is elegantly getting the better of the big game.
In order to prevent Fred from scarying away his prey, Laurence devises a bet, a match of wits, between the two of them. The one who wins it gets to stay, the one who loses must leave. The bet consists of extracting $50,000 from unsuspecting victim - which they both choose and agree upon.
Now the priceless and hillarious match of wits begins, each one trying to outdo another and each one alternatively getting one step ahead, until the hunters realize that they have been hunted themselves all along by someone with even greater wits.
