Somewhere behind the early 1960s cold-war iron curtain, the Hollander family cause an international spying incident when Walter photographs a sunset in a sensitive region. In order to stay out of jail, the Hollanders take refuge in the American Embassy, which is temporarily being run by the absent Ambassador's diplomatically incompetent son, Axel.

51/100
One of Woody Allen's weakest movies: the jokes weren't really funny and the witty and smart dialogue was missing giving us some pretty bland and uninteresting characters. The acting was pretty good tho.
