Audience Member Why can't moviemakers stick with the plot of a good book? All that's left of Wodehouse in this ridiculous movie are the names of Bertie and Jeeves! Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Good silly fun. I wish Arthur Treacher (Jeeves) were here to get me out of scrapes! The young David Niven is surprising as Bertie Wooster, surprising because Bertie Wooster is such a flake and David Niven usually plays cool on-top-of-everything English gents. Madcap car chase in open cars makes me appreciate 1.)paved roads and 2.) closed cars. They had whisk brooms to dust themselves off! Also, the fact that everyone wears suits and ties and fedoras makes me realize how hard it must have been to tell the crooks from Scotland Yard--one of the points of the movie. Now, at least, the crooks have the good grace to wear a crook uniform. hahahaha. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Two entertaining diversions for those who have enjoyed Wodehouse's Jeeves and Wooster stories as well as the BBC adaptation of said stories. The films are not as true to the style of Wodehouse's stories as I would have liked, especially in their representation of Jeeves. While Bertie is still sufficiently idiotic, Jeeves is hardly the reserved character seen in the original stories and on some instances, here, even comes across as oddly passionate. Taken without the source material in mind, though, these are rather enjoyable little films. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Niven and Treacher are excellent, but Hollywood took liberties with the characterization of Jeeves. Not much of a plot, hence the 57 minute run time. Would like to have seen this duo perform a true Wodehouse story/script. Willie Best is out of place, but provides some great laughs. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member great movie but i still prefer the series with hugh laurie and stephen fry Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Decently amusing, although Jeeves isn't as Jeeves-ish as he should've been. David Niven was pretty good as Bertie Wooster. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
