Arthur & Linda fall in love too quickly (other than both being resolutely unserious jokesters it's hard to see what the profound attraction is) & Hobson's fate is telegraphed too early, but the strength of this lies in how funny you find it (especially given the number of jokes) & I found it very funny. Drunken Arthur's like a modern day Groucho spouting off lots of great one-liners & his manic energy is nicely complemented by Hobson's desert-dry & deadpan delivery.

A hedonistic billionaire (Dudley Moore) is being pressured into an arranged marriage, but when he meets a woman he genuinely loves (Liza Minnelli), he finds himself very torn indeed. It's hard to overlook how shoddily structured the script is or its technical shortcomings, but it's equally hard not to be charmed by Moore (or Minnelli), or to not be amused by the dry snark of his devoted butler (John Gielgud, who won an Oscar). And there are some really funny bits. It's just all rather uneven.
