Reviews

Roger Ebert wrote in the Chicago Sun-Times on June 22, 1983 that the comedy was "aimless" and "embarrassing". Robin Williams finally destroys the slight credibility that the story could have.

The lexicon of international films ruled that it was a "precise comedy about the failure of the American dream and the seductiveness of people in the face of existential crisis situations."

This and that

The film was shot in Vermont . It grossed $ 14 million at the US box office.
