Is it as bad as people say it is?

@@timelordvictorious It's not terrible. On a scale from "The Great McGonall"-to-"Being There," it's somewhere around "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." Great production value, but the comedy is painfully absent.

Herd this film was a bit of Disaster for Peter sadly.apparently he asked to marry the German actress in shot in the dark wonder if it was Awkward for them to act in this film?

Even for a Peter Sellers fanatic like myself, this one was hard to get through. It's just so _low energy._ The laughs are stale at best, Sellers looks depressed and bored throughout, nobody else seems terribly happy to be appearing in it, the pacing is leaden. Even The Fiendish Plot of Dr Fu Manchu (1980), the last movie Sellers ever made, is better, and that movie suuuuuuuuucks.
