Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJerry Lewis had worked as an usher for Suzanne Pleshette's father Gene Pleshette at the Paramount Theater. When she auditioned, Lewis phoned Gene in disbelief.
- GoofsIn Japan, before entering a communal bath, one is required to shower first so as to be clean when entering the water. When Gilbert and Mitsuo walk up to the entrance door for the bath, both are completely dry. Public baths in Japan are nude, and Gilbert is shown to be wearing a pair of knee-length swim trunks under his robe, while Mitsui is correctly naked.
- Quotes
Gilbert Wooley: Gee that's terrible. 'The Oversexed Major'... Besides soldiers can't be sexy... Not with the food the army gives them to eat.

Featured review
Another EXTREMELY UNDERRATED film by the comedy GENIUS of Jerry Lewis
Only in America would we not see the absolute genius of one of our best talents EVER!! This movie shows some of his brilliance and without vulgarity or sexual innuendos....his nutty professor is a SOLID 10 yet its rated in the 6s. We give garbage like adam sandler, or borat higher scores. The magic of his comedy is world renown especially in France. You want proof watch Jerry's version of the nutty professor then watch Eddie Murphys version its night and day. He only made g rated comedies just using his physical and expressive talents, TRUE comedians know his genius. Billy crystal would be a usher without the influence of Jerry he is SORELY missed and him and Stan laurel will NEVER be matched!!!
