This colorful screwball comedy uses the premise of 150 little people playing The Wizard of Oz's Munchkins housed in one Culver City hotel - and indulging in some high-energy partying - to spin zany screen mayhem with touches of romance (between Chevy Chase and Carrie Fisher) and cockeyed espionage (involving German agent Billy Barty and Japanese spy Mako).
