Wallace Ritchie, an American vacationer in London, doesn't know that the bullets are real and the truth serum true. He thinks the intrigue erupting around him is part of an audience-participation theater event. Yet the world's fate depend's on this gullible goofus who can't even spell CIA.
Bill Murray is Ritchie, the naive spy who comes in very bold in The Man Who Knew Too Little. He can't believe how believable the make-believe is. But as Ritchie's funny experiences with femme fatale a corpse, highway pursuits (lesson #1: drive on the left), assassins and a bomb prove, variety isn't just the spice of life. It's the life of spies.
Editor's Note
When bumbling lummox Wallace Ritchie threatens a visit to his successful, handsome, and socially mobile brother's posh London flat, the only thing to keep him out of trouble is the so-called "Theatre of Life," in which participants play a game of intrigue with hired actors masquerading as spies and hitmen. Unfortunately, Wallace inadvertently intercepts a phone call from real spies, who peg him for the gunman in their assassination plot--but Wallace himself is none the wiser.

5 of 5 Tuesday, September 10, 2002
Chet from Hillsdale, New Jersey
This is one of those unexpected pleasures. Didn't hear about it in the theaters, and rented it for the first time. Bought it immediately! Extremely funny, with many memoriable lines. Good clean fun, for the whole family with only one very short exception. Was this review helpful?  
5 of 5 If you like Bill Murray, you'll love this DVD. Friday, January 18, 2002

If you're a true Bill Murray fan then this is a must
have for your collection.
However, if you don't think Bill is funny then
you probably won't be to into this unless you have
a decent sense of humor Was this review helpful?
