Woody Allen-scripted vehicle for the two Peters is completely out of gas
2 August 2002
Surprisingly flat comedy about a girl-crazy fashion magazine editor and his eccentric psychiatrist, and their adventures with mini-skirted birds. Peter O'Toole is game but miscast; Peter Sellers, in an exaggerated Beatles wig, seems constricted by the mostly unfunny screenplay, his personality never coming to a full boil. Glossy, pseudo-naughty, but unfunny picture, which doesn't even capture the Swinging '60s with much appeal. Directed by Clive Donner with assistance from Richard Talmadge; written by Woody Allen, who also makes his movie debut. The title song, sung by Tom Jones, may be the most memorable thing in it. *1/2 from ****
