Comedy is hard.
With those profound words, the actor expired, leaving us to pick up the pieces of most of the dreck that passes for comedy these days. Which is too bad, because it has a lot going for it. First, the concept, also known as the title, which is probably all it took for Warner Brothers to greenlight it for production. Not to be, in Arnold Schwarzenegger's timeless phrase, and the reason is that Ramis badly lets the film down by trying to get too cute. He overdirects scenes that should just be left alone, with the camera as observer.
