One of the funniest movies I have ever seen.
7 April 2000
This movie is absolutely hilarious. I grew up watching movies like this so please forgive my bias. It has dozens of quotable lines. In fact every time I ask my dad to buy me a watch he just says "Ask somebody, somebody will tell you what time it is". A bit emotionally scarring, but what the heck it's funny! This movie starts off really well and then just gets better. Donald Sutherland and Gene Wilder deliver two very funny comedic performances and keep you laughing the whole time. This movie has both elements of cerebral and slapstick humor. I mean the whole shooting gallery bit with the man in the iron mask is classic. My dad showed me this movie when I was six I laughed like crazy. Now at age twenty when I actually get all the jokes I laugh even harder. This movie is a hit or miss type thing. You will either love it or hate it. If you are sick of the usual hip teen comedy that are out right now try looking in the section of your video store that has the older stuff. This movie will be hidden far in the back probably right next to Young Frankenstein. Watch and either laugh like mad or curse me for reccomending it. I think you will be pleasantly surprised and if not then oh well.
