Eddie Harrison film-authority.com ... will disappoint those looking for the immaculate timing, fourth-wall breaks and transcendent gags with made their tv shows a national institution, but there are still remnants of the old patter here that make this a watchable, if not classic affair... Rated: 3/5 Jan 29, 2024 Full Review MFB Critics Monthly Film Bulletin The film's humour depends largely on the comic personalities of Morecambe and Wise. Their admirers will find much to enjoy, but others may feel that a lot of energy is being expended to small purpose. Feb 6, 2018 Full Review Phil Hall Film Threat Abysmally unfunny romp that effectively ended Morecambe and Wise's attempt at a screen career. Rated: 1/5 Aug 8, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member A Must for anybody who's a fan of English Comedy or fans of Morecambe and wise! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Not quite a roaring comedy, but highly enjoyable Sunday afternoon viewing from the Legendary duo, sadly now both departed. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member After Eric and Ernies' first two brilliant big screen outings, this one comes as a massive disappointment. The film looks and feels like the producers somehow got hold of a rejected "Carry On" script and dropped our hapless duo into the middle of it. Unfunny, cringeworthy and rather tedious viewing. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Not too many laughs to be had here that we are so used to from their tv show. This is only for fans of M&W to be fair. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Lackluster comedy from the talented duo. It's unfunny when compared to their television career, only really a minor part of what made up their legend. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member The Duo's Third & Final Film, See's Eric Mistaken For A Revolutionary Leader, In Which He Becomes President. The Duo Then End Up On The Run From The People Who Saved Thier Lives. Not As Good As That Riviera Touch & Certainly Not As Good As The Intelligence Men.
