Cast of familiar faces, led by Peter Falk, makes the really stupid script bearable. Not Simon's best by a long shot, but Falk is always watchable. John Houseman makes a poor Sidney Greenstreet, however.

D (Bad).

Five famous detectives are challenged to solve a murder.

There are a few funny jokes in it, but more than enough agressively unfunny ones to kill any goodwill - especially since it offers nothing on any level apart from jokes.

El excéntrico multimillonario Lionel Twain invita a cenar a su castillo a los cinco detectives más importantes de la historia: el chino Sidney Wang, el neoyorquino Dick Charleston, la inglesa Jessica Marbles, el belga Milo Perrier y el norteamericano Sam Diamond, que llega acompañado de su rubia secretaria. Después de ser recibidos por un mayordomo ciego (Alec Guiness), Twain les explica durante la cena el motivo de la reunión: a medianoche se producirá un asesinato; el que sea capaz show more de resolverlo ganará un millón de dólares.
