We watched this a week or so ago. Great copy! Okay movie, some solid laughs but also some misfires. The opening is fantastic, maybe the best thing about the movie.

It was a sequel to the superior Murder by Death, also written by Neil Simon with Peter Falk as a Sam Spade-type detective. They both had large, all-star casts.

You left out Truman Capote!

Tru was in Murder by Death, not The Cheap Detective.
