Seems Like Old Times (1980)

An American comedy directed by Jay Sandrich, starring Chevy Chase, Goldie Hawn and Charles Grodin.
A man is forced by criminals to rob a bank. He gets away and goes to his ex-wife for help. She is a lawyer who employs criminals and has classy dinner parties. After lots of mess, the supposed bank robber, ex-wife and her new husband meet at a dinner party with the governor.
This was a pretty standard, traditional and classic style comedy. I think that Chevy Chase and Goldie Hawn make a great team, mostly because of National Lampoon's Vacation. The chauffeur/butler, T.K. Carter also did a great job. The ironic and mixed up situations usually involved Chevy Chase hiding somewhere and Goldie Hawn trying to keep Charles Grodin from finding him. As I said, this film is very much of its time and genre. I rate it adequate because it was entertaining, but exactly what I expected.
