When food connoisseur Max Vandevere (Robert Morley) publishes his list of the world’s greatest chefs he inadvertently sets in motion a stream of jealousy, anger and eventually murder.
Robby Ross (George Segal), the ex-husband of Natasha (Jacqueline Bisset) who’s on the list, finds himself in the midst of the murder spree.
It’s a promising premise with a soupçon of good jokes, a sprinkle of bad puns and more than a dash of bad taste.
Good ingredients here but the recipe just doesn’t gel resulting in a good looking dish that unfortunately leaves a bitter aftertaste and the nagging feeling that it could have been much tastier.
