I've never seen a worse comedy.  It has a promising idea (that a criminal would fail at every turn) but is so tightly over scripted that you can't even laugh in the wrong places.  There are none of the quirky truthful insights about real life that "Annie Hall" later had.  Woody Allen must be an absolutely humorless person.  The only good thing that can be said is that this failure forced him to go in a different direction.
