Included in the New York Times's 10 BEST FILMS OF 1979
New York Times
A sporadically funny, marginally interesting fiasco that might have evolved into a memorable romantic comedy.

Dudley Moore is periodically funny, Julie Andrews is mostly charming, and Bo Derek is always gorgeous.

And oh, the irony, that the film only deserves a '1.'

It was a big hit. I have never understood why.

Rating: B- --
This passable but not great Blake Edwards picture became known for the huge impact that the beautiful Bo Derek had on hairstyle; Bo's stardom was shortlived, though.

People tend to forget what a hilarious movie this really is

Product Description:
Dudley Moore stars in Blake Edwards's deft satire of male menopause. A successful songwriter seemingly possessed of the trappings of the good life, George Webber (Moore) is plagued by a sense of that he's losing his interest in life and sex. Despite sage advice from friend Hugh (Robert Webber) on appreciating his girlfriend, Samantha (Julie Andrews), he can't help fantasizing about his exhibitionist neighbors and becomes obsessed by the sight of his dentist's daughter after seeing the stunning woman on the way to her wedding in Beverly Hills. George follows the couple to an Acapulco hotel, where he wangles a meeting with the woman, Jenny Miles (Bo Derek), after saving the life of her husband, Sam (David Hanley). As he continues an amusingly bungling pursuit of Jenny, she makes it clear that she has a particularly generous reward in mind for his action. In Edwards's hilarious, knowing comedy of middle-aged angst, Moore splits his time between clownish pratfalls and quiet scenes of self-examination as he strives for an elusive sense of fulfillment.
