Rating of 1 stars out of 5 Radio Times

As well as being an original comic talent, Richard Pryor has also had the dubious distinction of appearing in a plethora of truly execrable movies. The man has a homing instinct for a dreadful script and this is certainly one of them. This two-handed comedy — Gene Wilder is Pryor's partner in puerile nonsense in their third movie together — manages to waste both men's ability and bore and deeply offend most people at the same time. Quite a feat. Their characters are deaf and blind respectively and the movie hinges on a series of appalling jokes and unoriginal situations, wrapped around a makeshift murder plot.

New York Times

Rated - 2 starsMildly Amusing

A customer from Surrey , 17/04/2008

Mildly amusing tale, although really only one joke that got worked to death by the end of the film, so much so that I was kind of relieved it was over. Kevin Sspacey was dreadful though with a rotten English accent.. I bet he does not like being reminded of this film!

Rated - 5 starsMy Second Favorite Comedy Of All Time

Stuart from Guildford, Surrey , 04/03/2007

Ok, so I am biased about this film. Yes there are some good laugh out loud scenes and the comedy is well crafted. On the minus side it is a little dated with a dodgy ending. Listen carefully to the hidden one liners, you will hear and see something new every time you watch it. Excellent film. My Number 1 comedy? Dumb and Dumber (Check out the Turbolax gag)
