The
Out of Towners with Jack Kelly and Sandy Dennis has
a cleaner, more decent presentation than its 1999 remake with Steve Martin and
Goldie Hawn, but the remake has higher entertainment value. The story is fun,
comical, light entertainment. Watch for Jack Kelly in the movie.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Yes.
It’s clean, good fun that everyone can identify with on some level because each
of the experiences this couple encounters are part of the common human
experience. The movie allows a good chuckle due to all the things that can go
wrong when embarking on a trip away from home.
