Most helpful review Two Way Stretch

  • Great

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By Lee from Manchester , 27 Oct 2004

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Peter Sellers stars in this comedic caper as Dodger Lane, a wily thief currently serving the last couple weeks of a prison sentence along with two of his partners in crime. Always looking for a way to make a big score, Dodger has concocted an ingenious plan for a jewel heist while maintaining a rock solid alibi: conduct the crime from inside the prison. With the help of a morally lax clergyman named Soapy Stevens, the trio plan to skip out prison, steal a maharajah's jewels and sneak back behind bars all on the day before they're due to be released. Unfortunately, a new and borderline psychotic prison guard arrives a few days before the heist and proceeds to make life behind bars a little more uncomfortable than Dodger and company would like.

  • Pretty dire stuff

    Unfunny, cliched comedy. Lionel Jeffries, Irene Handl and Peter Sellers play their usual characters. There are far better old British comedies.

    This is a great example of an old british comedy, its a very funny crime caper. A great cast, watch out for Lionel Jeffries, fantastic casting. Very easy to watch.
