No, this film is not a masterpiece in film-making. But, it's one of my favorite movies.
First, the first scenes of this film where Larry (Andrew McCarthy) brushes off the mugger in Central Park, since makes me smile.
The story-line is very 1980s, fraud/embezzlement in a corporate atmosphere. The physical comedy by Terry Kiser was exactly what was needed. Who thought toting a dead body around could be so amusing?

"For me, personally, I am not sure there is a great Cassavetes film. But the body of work is profound and inspiring. And it endures, which is the ultimate achievement. He allowed actors to create a spontaneity and sometimes an inarticulate dialogue that added to the heartbreak and humor of his characters. He’s a man who had the courage to tell stories in his own way. And that is his great legacy."
