C+
This clumsy farce is funny in places, but the comedy is uneven, with an equal number of hits and misses. It is a kind of tame, low-rent version of 'Blazing Saddles.' Go to Full Review

Chris S Jan 20 This movie is silly, it is goofy, it is hilarious! Make that still hilarious. I saw it back in '72 when it first came out and I was a teenager. I was wondering if my sense of humor had matured since then, so I watched it on YouTube - nah, it was still a riot IMHO! A nice escape from reading and watching the news. See more 08/28/2020 Not exactly the best example of a "role model" --for a leading man in a film--but we can overlook that--since the film is hilariously funny and essentially harmless--with better humor than most of the modern films today. See more 07/28/2020 Hilarious slapstick! See more 12/15/2019 Not quite Blazing Saddles, but not too far off. See more 03/27/2015 Love this movie. Have been looking for it forever. See more 08/20/2014 Just Great, get it, watch it, laugh at it, enjoy it. BRAVO See more Read all reviews
