Summary / AnnotationCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
1980 movie "Hopscotch submitted by mikedennisdearing on June 16, 2021, 10:15pm Walter Matthau has always been one of my favorite comedic actors, especially in "The Odd Couple" with Jack Lemon, but this movie was not as good as I thought it was 40 years ago. It still might give some degree of enjoyment on a cold winters night.
