Skip it unless you're a die-hard Bill Murray completist—this 1997 comedy wastes a brilliant premise and a talented cast on a plodding script that mistakes confusion for humor. The mistaken-identity setup could've been hilarious, but instead it just drags you through 90+ minutes of Bill looking befuddled while the plot circles itself to death.

Plot

An American gets a ticket for an audience participation game in London, then gets involved in a case of mistaken identity. As an international plot unravels around him, he thinks it's all part of the act.
