 Classic comedy, don' t make em like this anymore! August 23, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Matthau was a comic genius, this movie has a bunch of great comic guest appearances! I laughed my potootie off! Have seen the movie a bunch of times, but Matthau has always been one of my favorite comics with his rubber face, and basset hound looks. Numerous memorable scenes, one of my favorites is the one in the supermarket with the cantelopes. This is a real funny, movie about sex without being dirty. They knew how to make great movies when this film was made. Where did you get those big eyelashes? :-) Art Carney is wonderfully funny as the construction worker, Ben Blue is great. Lucille Ball is fairly good.

One of the more side-splitting comedies of the 1960s, dated and politically incorrect in the extreme, which only makes it funnier today. Director Kelly (yes-he was also a dancer) deserves kudos for taking the most delicate of subject matter and toeing the line of good taste like an expert tightrope walker. Both Matthau and Morse are a riot together, but some of those cameos take the cake: in particular, look for the Reiner, Ball and Carney sequences.Catchy title tune sung by The Turtles.
A Black comedy satire that delivers February 4, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Director Gene Kelly (yes, the actor/dancer) directs this satire about a cheating men.
Robert Morse, Hot offthe success of the film version of "How to Suceed in Business Without Really Trying" makes this film a hit by playing a Finch-liker character. Walter Matthau plays again the type he would later play to the hilt, the novice. Morse takes Matthau under his wing to how to have an affair with mini skits with famous cameos
This black comedy was strong for the 1960's but by todays standards it was be tame and cute
It still holds up 40 years later and still have an air of truth to it

 Too Many Laughs January 4, 2007

I first saw this movie on TV in the mid 60's. My wife and I laughed and snickered through the whole thing. Then I saw it again, a few years later, while in VietNam. That was a real hoot with a bunch of guys watching and reacting. Some 35 or more years later, I remembered it and just had to have a copy for myself. The entire movie, about how to cheat on your wife and not get caught, is chock full of cameos by readily recognizable stars acting out little scenarios as Robert Morse explains how to go about things to Walter Matthau. It's a light no-brainer, full of amusing surprises, for aspiring cheats who will have no clue what happens at the very end!
