While the movie isn't perfect, with a few of the vignette sequences that kind of drag a bit, there is plenty of comedy and several laugh out loud moments. Plus there are a few scenes on the racy side for a mid-60s mainstream film. :-)
Walter Matthau is as good as he always was at dry comedic roles, and makes the film. Robert Morse is perfect as the devil on his shoulder, helping him figure out how to "step out" without making critical mistakes.
The heart of the film, though are the vignettes by a who's who of Hollywood comedy talent. While others have been mentioned, I think my favorite was Joey Bishop's where he ways nothing but Who, Why, When, Where, and What in vavious combinations. :-)
Looking for some 60s nostalgia ... give it a try.
