Simon Rose Empire Magazine Watching Matthau and Lemmon in this vehicle is sometimes hard to stomach after knowing that they are worthy of so much more. Rated: 2/5 •  Aug 5, 2020 Full Review Michael Wilmington Chicago Tribune They're two saints of sarcasm. And they work their magic here with only the flimsiest sitcom structure to support them. Rated: 2.5/4 •  Aug 5, 2020 Full Review
