A naive American in London is mistaken for a spy by a group bent on reviving the good old days of Cold War skullduggery. Believing it's all a game he treats every dramatic situation and threat as a joke. (official distributor synopsis)

Prioritize:
40% Bond, 40% Pink Panther, 10% Hitchcock, and 10% fun. Wrong man? Wrong movie... Murray in the role of a fool drifting through events because he's hitched a ride on luck's wheel has one major flaw - he lacks Leslie Nielsen's deadpan expression. Even with that, it would probably still be a film that entertained too little.
