This is a very, very good 80s comedy with a lot of good actors in it.
The only thing bad about it is the music, total crap it is like the classical music in your dentist's office, just cued into various scenes randomly.
This is a very funny movie with good suspense.
I am not a real connoisseur of the works of Dan Aykroyd, but this is by far the best work I have seen from him. He steals every scene with a commanding performance. I highly recommend it.
The only part of the movie that really got on my nerves was when Baird was in the cab from the airport to the office and would not shut up even when others were talking.
shareOne of the best underrated 80's comedy movies around. I'm a fan of Dan Aykroyd and his work, and think this movie shows off more of his talents, he's so hilarious in the film.

They don't make 'em like they used to!
Seriously!!
They're are so few decent, fun, and funny films being made now-a-days. Thank god Netflix has given me an 80s comedies section.
You are so right. I hadn't thought of it until reading your post, but other than something with Steve Carell in it, I can't think of many (if any at all) recent comedies that actually made me laugh.
When I saw this had Walter Matthau and Charles Grodin in it, I had to give it a look. "Solid" is exactly right. And I was pleasantly surprised by Akryod. This movie has definitely flown under the radar.
