Review Time: this film is excellent fun.

Background music/Inner monologue: yes I am aware that I just said something really positive about this title, but it does have one or two consistent problems, the background music is loud, really repetitive and so, so annoying. On top of this; the audience has this inner monologue thing going on at some points throughout this project which really doesn't work, on one hand you have this noisy background music going on at the same time as this inner monologue [so in a nutshell the background music makes the inner monologue element pointless, yes you can hear it but taking in the information given properly is another matter entirely] and whilst I am on the subject as inner monologues go it is just terrible.

Chevy Chase as Irwin M. "Fletch" Fletcher: this is Chevy at his very best, yes usually I wouldn't be this straight to the point, but in this case there is no point going around the houses when the point is clear, meaning as soon as you begin watching this title, you will understand straightaway where the comedy elements or styles are mainly going to come from.

Chevy puts in a lively performance, his character seems more than capable to adapt to any situation physically or mentally or verbally [basically this person can talk his way out of a paper bag or if that fails at least he tries to run away.]

Comedy flavours: depending where you are in the film, is depending what comedy could be unravelling, briefly without giving too much away, it could be in the dialogue exchanges or Chevy being someone else [different personality traits in some scenes] or some other comedy element.

This film receives: 88% approval, now like I said at the beginning of this review, this film is excellent fun but in fairness I have to take off a decent percentage for the elements which I didn't like.
