What a hilarious surprise! Coburn isn't the type of guy you'd think of when it comes to comedy - same as with Lee Marvin - but he's just great. The film is totally absurd in a "Pink Panther" kind of way - free your mind and find this movie!

The Doctor is out. Far out.

This movie is a great pick-me-up, and I agree James Coburn is hilarious. I think the reason he's so funny is he's playing against type. We're used to seeing him in very dark roles, but his deadpan delivery here is irresistible. This film also has a '60s mod look that's positively out of this world. What a far-out find!
