John Russell Taylor Sight & Sound It is saddening that Ustinov's exuberant fantasy has been kept so carefully in check. Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Clyde Gilmour Maclean's Magazine There are several moments of quiet drollery but the satire is disappointingly thin and Ustinov's directorial pace is sluggish.
