Release

This was one of two films that Jerry Lewis made in the 1980s strictly for European release. They have never been released in the US, although it has been given at least two tentative US release titles: To Catch a Cop and The Defective Detective. Lewis has stated that as long as he has control over distribution they will never be released in the US.
