Reception [edit]
Vincent Canby of The New York Times thought that Kenneth Mars was "very funny" and that Harry Morgan "has some nice moments" as well.[4] Multifariousness wrote that the picture show "lurches from one set piece to another, in a fashion that makes its 88-infinitesimal running fourth dimension seem much longer. Conway and Knotts have perfected their bumbling routines to a very small-scale art form, simply principal laughs are supplied by drunk jokes, and grapheme names such every bit Jack Elam'southward Big Mac. When hamburger trademarks become chief yock-suppliers, time has come up to expect elsewhere."[5] Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times called the picture "delightful," with "much humor and activeness. Indeed, it's more inventive — and eventful — than the more than sophisticated comedy-western 'Butch and Sundance: The Early Days.'"[6] Gary Arnold of The Washington Post dismissed it as "the latest bromidic try at juvenile one-act from the Disney studio."[vii]
