Movie #492 ........................."The Man Who Knew Too Little"

Movie #492 "The Man Who Knew Too Little" is a good find, and the words netflix uses to describe this film, "Goofy, Quirky." are right on the mark. This is totally a Bill Murray vehicle, and it truly shows off his talents --- it's a Bond spoof and it had us laughing several times. The only complaint I had is that it took too long to end ------ a little quicker there, and it would have been a 4 or 5 rating. It really is like "Being There" but less cerebral =--- just all fun! I recommend it. (kids could watch it , too, because any killings are done in a silly fashion!
