Critical reception
The Radio Times called it a "Far-fetched comedy" and rated it two out of five stars;[3] while Sky Cinema wrote "Hollywood stars Virginia Bruce and John Carroll help to give a top coating of sophistication to this feather-light British comedy."[4]
gollark: Also, I more complain about you seemingly *claiming* to be objective sometimes.
gollark: I changed it to "stupid", but this probably has similar connotations to "idiot", so hmm.
gollark: Oh, did you? Hmm. I'll make some tweaks.
gollark: The original one you seem to like says "idiot".
gollark: This is serious, except the "dodecahedron" bit and maybe orbital laser strike.
