The poker game scene ( I got brown sandwiches and green sandwiches ) is perfectly executed and a joy to watch. I compare it to the chariot race in Ben Hur. If you are channel surfing and come across it you just have to watch.

yeah, Paddy that was perfectly directed, acted and especially, edited. I agree that is a scene worth watching over and again, especially if you have any theater background it felt like perfect theater. Wish I could have seen these two on Broadway wow.

I saw this last night and must agree. It is a flawless movie. The cast is perfect. Is there a bad actor anywhere in the film? Even the smallest part such as the hotel clerk in the opening scene eating a slice of pizza while he checks Felix in is excellent. Probably the best comedy screenplay ever. Nothing is as solid as the Odd Couple, line for line.
I am sure this has been brought up, but what a crime it is that this is not in the IBDB top 250. It's in my top 10! -

I agree wholeheartedly, and as for the posting for a remake, I say don't mess with success, remake a piece of junk and make it better instead of ruining a classic. The cast is pretty near perfect, even down to the walkons.

THE MOVIE IS PERFECT EXCEPT FOR ONE SMALL THING:
THE SCENE WHERE THERE PLAYING POKER:
MURRAY: HOW MANY CARDS U GOT 4?
SPEED: YES MURRAY WE ALL HAVE FOR CARDS IF U GAVE US ONE MORE WE'D ALL HAVE 5 IF U GAVE US 2 MORE WE'D ALL HAVE 6. U UNDERSTAND HOW IT WORKS NOW?
IT SHOULD'VE BEEN 7 NOT 6. THE MOVIE IS GOOD EXCEPT FOR THAT ONE MINOR THING!!!!!!!!!!!
CAN'T BELIEVE NO ONE NOTICED THAT!!!!!!!!!
