Summary: Extremely Funny for Everyone
Review: Weather you have been a tourist in New York City or live there anyone can relate to this movie. Even if you have not taken a bite out of the Big Apple the humor, plot and acting is first rate. I have seen the movie numerous times and whenever I watch it again, I still find myself laughing.

Summary: NEIL SIMON PROBABLY LEFT TOWN
Review: Wouldn't you with your name attached to this pathetic movie? Of course Neil Simon had very little do with this fortunately. The original movie pretty much was carried by Jack Lemmon -but it had a certain charm. While no Odd Couple - Simon with the original one - did not need to be ashamed.Very few of the jokes work in this movie. For example, the bit where they mistakenly enter a sex therapy group, starts out funny, but ends up very unfunny. This movie really proves how very difficult it is to write a good comedy. My guess is they paid big $$$ for this screen adaption - yet the results look like a quick TV Movie script. Interesting thing is to look at each scene in this movie - and try to figure out how to make it funny. Once the film company had this thing locked and ready to exhibit when it first came out, one can only think of the famous words that Bernie Shaw of CNN uttered live on an actual CNN news segment last spring: "This is going to be a f....n disaster"
