Customer Reviews

“Mr. Richie has gone for the port.”

This is London. James Ritchie (Peter Gallagher) has a business meeting with a German delegation tonight. His brother Wallace (Bill Murray) shows up as a surprise. It just happens that tonight is also Wallace’s birthday. So, to keep Wallace occupied and away from the meeting, James pays for a participation theater game that is played like real life. At midnight, when it is over, they will smoke a couple of Ambassadors. Everything goes wrong from the start when Wally accidentally crosses paths with real spies, espionage, murder, a gorgeous femme fatale, and Boris 'The Butcher' (Alfred Molina). It starts a mile away and gets wilder as time passes. Will Wally come out alive? Will James put over the trade deal with the Germans or will he go for the port? One of my favorite scenes was the obligatory chase scene with the Austin Mini.
