I loved this movie when I saw it at the theater when it came out, but I was 13 and not very discriminating. Watched it many times in the early days of cable and had the CIT song memorized (still do).
Just watched it again about 44 years later and didn't even smile once.
Bill Murray is obviously trying hard to be funny, but there's not much to work with here. I think Harold Ramis is an underrated comic genius, but he was no help on this script.
Most of the cast had no real acting ability, so the lackluster writing showed through in a big way.
Several of the "scenes" are awkward and even uncomfortable to watch, including the "hilarious" sexual assault spoof.
Not really worth watching, to be honest, unless you're a Murray completist. Also, the songs in this movie are nearly incomprehensible bad.
