Typical French farce with many doors flapping and people under beds, many at the same time, great double takes and all that. This is one of the last real funny movies of the great era of quality comedies. The cast is perfect and ensemble in action. Not a wasted moment. Really funny with real laughs but there are not the super noise and explosions of the rather "in your face" funny moments. But, alas, those moments are gone with present generation. But it comes out even for I don't think the stuff now is really funny. I'm glad I saw this one and Court Jester and Beat the Devil and a couple of Marx Brothers. That's just the way it is, not bad or good, but different. I think it is FUNNY all the way.
This is not the greatest movie ever made as some suggest. It has a story that could never happen - except in Hong Kong. Acting is top notch. Nicholson is as usual; should have been shot early in movie. Only one girl in show but since she sleeps with everyone, only one is needed. Lots of f*** to where it really doesn't mean anything (sounds like real life, doesn't it). You won't get tired and it is a great story to watch for action. It is a city Italian cowboy western. I do not think many women will enjoy it. I did but it isn't a really great movie. Peckenpaugh lives. I've finally accepted Damon as a tough, mean fighter but it has taken a long time. Where is Orlando Bloom to add to the violence?
