Most helpful review The Magnificent 7 Deadly Sins

  • Ok worth a look

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By A.S from Wales , 25 Nov 2004

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Not a stunning or shining example of comedy, but not bad.

    A series of sketches, or `shorts? and a nostalgic look back into the late 60s early 1970s.

    You won?t be rolling over on the floor, but it might make you chuckle.

    Harry H. Corbett (Steptoe & Son) `Lust? is a sad laugh. (he always seems to be 37 and not married, why is that ?)

    Ian Charmicheal, Alfie Bass Sheila Bernette in `Pride? are perhaps the pick of the bunch.

    The much underrated 1960s 70s T.V and stage `bitplayer? Sheila Bernette, shows a leg to good effect.

    Overall not a bad DVD, the more gentle and wacky humour might be lost on today?s audience

    British Film from early 70's with alot of well known stars of the day, not as good as i rembered when I saw this as a Teenager, Their are some good moments thou, Favourite bit is where two cars meet on a narrow road and neither will reverse.

    Rated - 1.0 star

    Worth seeing for the brilliant Feldman-Milliganese of the chapter on sloth and the opening, wonderfully exaggerated naturist idyll-cum-pretext for a disapparelling Felicity Devonshire. Otherwise poor.

    Rated - 2.0 stars  
    By a customer from Clenchworton , 15 Mar 2004
    As is usual for this period, despite great writers and performers, there is an air of desparation about this movie.

    Each sin is a separate sketch written by different people, including Galton & Simpson, Graham Chapman & Barry Cryer and Spike Milligan.

    Never really gets going.
