The film follows a fashion editor Michael James getting serious problem with women when he does not want to refuses to change his lifestyle to settle down. He decides to meet psychiatrist Dr. Fritz Fassbender, but in fact the Dr is getting the similar circumstance.
Jammed with stars in a zany, surprisingly unfunny plot for the most part.

Offers a few bursts of insanity worth paying attention to, but as a farce, it never finds its footing, missing a golden opportunity to make iconic mischief with a trio of determined leading men.
A classic comedy of its time and captures the period in sight and sound. It doesn't wear as well as a true classic, though, and many of the gags would feel dated 20 years later.
Clive Donner's stylish direction harmonizes well with Woody Allen's inspired screenplay to yield an elegant entertainment, proving once again that Allen is a better scenarist than a director.
Somewhere in the proceedings there were sane and skillful artisans at work.

A horribly dated affair, Clive Donner's film ends with the entire cast desperately trying to get laughs from a go-kart race. Yes, it really is that bad.
Better scripted (by Woody Allen) than dirceted (by Clive Donner), this psychiatrist farce is intermittently funny; too bad that the role Allen wrote for himself instead went to Peter Sellers who's over the top.
