Blake Edwards turns out yet another lame mid-life crisis movie about a compulsive womanizing dick. John Ritter makes him watchable if not likeable, and the entire story seems concocted simply to set-up one spectacular FX-driven sex farce setpiece (but it's kinda worth the price of admission for that sequence). A bad guilty pleasure.
