Title: NOT WHAT YOU'VE COME TO EXPECT FROM BROOKS
Product review: The one reason I would tell someone not to rent this film or buy it is because there's not enough laughs! If you can believe that! Especially from MEL BROOKS! The story gets a bit BORING after a while. But this is not Brooks' fault! This movie is based on a old Russian novel entitled "The Golden Calf". There are some good points to the film though. This is Brooks' best directing effort. He shows great control has a director. The acting is SUPERB! Brooks even transforms Hugarian dance #5 by Brams,calling it "Hope for the best....expect the worst!" The title itself should bring on a smile. To bad there wasn't enough laughs!
