Review title: Where comedy fears to tread
Product review: If ever there was a genre ripe for parody, it is the Merchant Ivory school of film-making. If ever there was a film that failed so miserably to parody the genre, it is "Stiff Upper Lips", which makes "Scary Movie" seems like "Annie Hall".How very talented actors like Prunella Scales, Frank Finlay and Peter Ustinov (who deserves to be sent to Siberia for his performance) allow themselves to be part of this disaster is beyond comprehension. This movie has no redeeeming features whatsoever.
