Title: outdated humour even for the 70's
Review: Perhaps it was the sorry state of physical comedy in the 70's that makes people think this is a classic but personally this kind of humour that relies on cheap ethnic jokes (aka Don Rickles) can pass away and I wouldn't shed a tear. I know people heap praise on Blazing Saddles by saying this movie couldn't be made today or people are too P.C. but this movie is just plain bad as well as offensive. If there is some roundabout moral paradox that Brooks is really trying to reach for it gets lost in the shuffle just leaving the bad taste of this so called humour to linger.
Is the review positive or negative?
