Richard Williams

An hour and a half of unsophisticated satire.

Murray, not playing mean streak for once, is on his best comic form in years, but unfortunately this is a one joke movie and Too Little does not go a long way.

A plain caper comedy which [Bill Murray] singlehandedly elevates into a goofy gem.

In this attempt to revive Bill Murray's dwindling career as a leading man, dumb humor is the order of the day.

This plot wheeze may have passed muster 50 years ago, but is not viable on the threshold of the new millennium. The more the situation is elaborated, the more strained and outdated the jokes appear.
