I'm glad yo...@Chop246: Thanks for the comment!<br /><br />I'm glad you enjoyed it. Personally, I found it far too juvenile, even more so than Abbott and Costello used to be. That would have been fine if this film was geared toward children (it does have the feel from time to time of being a kids-oriented movie, especially with some of the slapstick). But then there are a few sexually suggestive scenes, and some (borderline) disturbing kills, that are out of place in a "kiddie" movie.<br /><br />I do like both Knotts and Conway, and think they make a good team (especially in some of those '70s Disney movies they made together). For me, this one just didn't hold up (I really wanted to love it... after all, I did when I was 10!)<br /><br />As I said, though, I'm glad you enjoyed it, and thanks again for taking the time to comment!DVD Infatuationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986606131886453883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003345269984484749.post-32298585885037624982013-12-07T13:50:54.373-05:002013-12-07T13:50:54.373-05:00I am watching this movie as I type.

I can tell you I totally disagree with you. watching this reminds me of the old Abbott and Costello films.While not the classics that try were. It still cracks me up.
