Great cast sells an otherwise okay comedy mystery mess, 17 January 2009
6/10
Author: dbborroughs from Glen Cove, New York

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Mobsters show up at a sanitarium in order to get the secret of hidden money from one of the patients.Into the mix come more crooks, people claiming to be related to the rich man and a detective. The robbery which begins to go wrong almost instantly suddenly becomes murder as someone begins to kill off the people gathered. Good, unremarkable and unlikely to stick in your brain comedy mystery is an amusing way to spend an hour. Overly silly at times, to the point any suspense is lost, this is film produces its share of chuckles thanks to a stalwart cast of character actors headed by Andy Divine as a male nurse. Everyone in the film is in fine form which helps to make the thin story worth seeing. A light hearted diversion worth sticking with if you stumble across it.
