At first it’s easy to be afraid that something horrible may happen to Chance but after he’s out of any potential danger the comedy really starts to shine. One memorable scene has Chance’s statement about gardening seasons misconstrued as a complex metaphor for the American economy that the President of the United States uses in his next speech. However, some of the jokes can be hit-or-miss; in one unforgettably awkward scene Chances love interest Eve (Shirley MacLaine) masturbates after mistaking Chance’s television obsession with sexual voyeurism. Similar moments are sprinkled throughout the film but they are not serious enough to sabotage the film
