Noises Off... (1992)

Not the greatest movie but one of the funniest and most relatable movies!

[8/10 · 21 August 2019]

I watched this movie recently and boy is it very relatable and very hilarious! It is a movie that I especially recommend to people who have done any form of theater. If you have participated in theater you will find this movie hilariously relatable, but even if you haven't I'm sure you will get something out of all the humor. I find this movie relatable because earlier this year I was in a production of the Larry Shue play The Foreigner where up until our preview night things were not coming together and it was very anxiety inducing. This movie was not well received by everyone. I will admit it doesn't entirely work as a movie and it doesn't feel entirely like a theatrical film. What makes it work is the comedy, the writing, and the cast made up of Michael Caine, John Ritter, Carol Burnett, Christopher Reeve, and Denholm Elliott. It's not for everyone but it is certainly for me.
