I have to admit to being a big fan of Bill Murray, but this is quite simply one of the best performances I have ever seen in a comedy. Not only that but the story is intriguing, perfectly paced and transports you totally into its bizarre little scenario.
I don't like to watch this too often to keep it fresh but I got it out the box again today and felt like a kid in a sweet shop! Murray's timing and dead-pan delivery have never been put to better effect, the "You speak French?........oui!" scene almost gave me a prollapse. Quite simply if you have not seen this, and you can easily suspend your sense of disbelief what are you waiting for. Jim Carrey fans may not get some of the nuances but this is one film that gets better every time you watch it.
