It's the exact same film as 'Monte Carlo or Bust'. Exactly. And it's too long. However long it is, it's too long.

A few laughs.

Not bad but not all that good either. It needs Dastedly and Mutley. Points for Terry Thomas, as always.

A good cast plays it straight-arrow and stiff upper lip in this sprawling '60s widescreen comedy adventure. Good fun, great scenery, and Terry-Thomas is a joy as usual.
