No. It is actually worse. Elaine May has said, "If everyone who claimed to hate Ishtar had actually seen the film, I'd be a rich woman.". Well, I finally sat through it. I am now scarred for life.
I don't blame Elaine May. I blame Warren Beatty mostly. He has no business acting in a comedy. He has no talent or sense for it. He is awful.
Dustin Hoffman is best as the befuddled reactionary in comedies. Thanks to Warren being so awful, Dustin is lost at sea.
Elaine May's writing isn't up to par with her previous projects, but I still do not blame her completely for this horrible abomination.
I wonder if it had broke even after 37 years?
