Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Don't Drink the Water was Woody Allen's first play. It had a successful run on Broadway and has enjoyed a long history in community theaters and high schools ever since. Allen didn't have much to do with this movie version, which was released in 1969; his involvement probably inspired the name of the movie Allen made that same year - Take the Money and Run. The movie version is directed with a plodding pace by Howard Morris, the brilliant comic actor whose directing work has been limited to sitcoms ever since; this was his last feature. There are a lot of fine character actors in this movie, all pretty much misused. I remember enjoying this movie when I was a kid, but I couldn't make it through this time around. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/12/15 Full Review Audience Member Standard vehicle for Jackie Gleason to display his obnoxious loudmouthed character. Estelle Parsons, Ted Bissell and Michael Constantine were good too. Some funny moments but too long and plot gets tiresome at some point.
