I simply can't understand the 5.3 average IMDB rating. I think it should be so much higher. Yes, it is an early 80's movie and dated, but the comedy and outstanding cast more than makes up for it. For a made-for-TV movie that debuted in Oct 1982 on ABC, I think it is very well done. Dyan Cannon is the epitome of comedy and she has such an infectious laugh in the movie. I also think they do a really good job of character development, especially her relationship with actor Barry Newman. They have really good chemistry in the show. There are so many comedic moments that will keep you in stitches, especially the airport scenes. There are however, very endearing scenes where the movie takes pauses on important moments. The movie flows really well, yet doesn't feel rushed or too slow. It truly is one of my favorite feel good movies. If you haven't seen the film, stream it and give it a try!
