The dying words of a thief spark a madcap cross-country rush to find buried treasure. The most grandly harebrained movie ever made, a pileup of slapstick and borscht-belt-y one-liners performed by an all-star cast.

REVIEWS & SUMMARIES
Library Journal ReviewCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
madcap, indeed submitted by lisa on July 30, 2019, 1:51pm star-studded madcappery
Mad in a good way submitted by tarascon on June 29, 2023, 9:17pm I’m basing my four stars on a memory of watching this on TV when I was around fourteen…. haven’t seen it since so I can’t say how the movie’s held up but it features a great comedic cast and I remember absolutely loving its “madcappery” (to quote the reviewer above).
