"The Couch Trip" is a film where the comedy truly works and it is highly amusing to watch Dan Aykroyd masquerading as Doctor Baird and brazenly hosting Doctor Maitlin's staid phone-in radio show in his own inimitable way - it is almost like watching Ken Kesey's enduring character Randal P. McMurphy let loose on a much broader canvas than the one afforded to him by a mere unauthorised fishing trip on board a yacht. This film also seems to have an inexhaustible number of places to go and by God it insists upon dragging us all along to those places as Burns gleefully swears on the radio and successfully prices himself into the higher echelons of the top salary bracket, but above all this it is a thoroughly entertaining and well engineered film which never really loses any of its enthusiastic momentum until the very end and this is vitally important especially for a comedy.
