OMG. I can't believe all the chuckleheads banging on about un-pc this and too much violence that. It's a stupid 70's comedy and one of the five best from the 70's - Slapshot, Uptown Saturday Night and Animal House being three others.
You get one choice of your own to add!
I just watched it again today and still enjoyed it as much as when I first saw it in the 70's. Basically it takes the formula for chase gags straight the era of Buster Keaton as such and updates them to the 70's.
I'm still trying to figure out how some people claim that Arkin is a stiff and has no chemistry with Cann. The only better pairing from that period for comedy has been Cosby and Poitier.
I'm also running All In The Family (another celebration of un-PCness) and again, it's dated but I see very few people with the guts to put out that kind of comedy today.
