Never A Dull Moment (1968)

A struggling actor (Dick Van Dyke) is mistaken for a paid assassin for the mob. Fearing for his life if they discover they've made a mistake, he plays along. Then it becomes a race against time to escape before they find out he's a fraud. Based on the novel THE RELUCTANT ASSASSIN by John Godey and directed by Jerry Paris (THE GRASSHOPPER). A very odd narrative for a Walt Disney family movie. A mob hit man whose assignment is to kill two security guards while a priceless painting is stolen from a museum so that a "retired" gangster (Edward G. Robinson) can add painting to his art collection? Dick Van Dyke works overtime mugging and pratfalling but he only adds to the desperation vibes that the movie gives off. Luckily, there's Edward G. Robinson good naturedly parodying his early gangster roles and he gives the movie its only distinction. Other than his professionalism, it's a pretty ragged effort. With Dorothy Provine, Henry Silva, Joanna Moore, Mickey Shaughnessy, Tony Bill and Slim Pickens.
