Sinopsis(1)
Harry Hinkle es un tipo con suerte. Cuando accidentalmente es golpeado por un duro centrocampista, todo lo que sufre es una ligera conmoción. Pero guiado por los consejos de un viejo estafador llamado Whiplash Willie, Harry finge haber quedado paralizado. Todo es una hábil estratagema de este par de sinvergüenzas para repartirse así el millón de dólares que la compañía de seguros tendrá que pagarles. (Filmin)

What should I tell you? I wasn't as thrilled as Harry. I don't mean to say it was a bad movie. It's just that the story and its execution didn't really grab me. The premise wasn't very demanding. Still, if the creators had focused only on the insurance event, they could have made a comedy worth four stars. Walter Matthau was great in the role of Willie Gingrich, a generous advocate for single mothers, and stole the film for himself. By combining three different themes, the whole thing fell utterly flat. I had to cool down afterward to be able to give more than two stars. Walter Matthau's performance deserved more than that. / Lesson learned: Having a lawyer in the family is priceless.
