4.0 out of 5 stars One of the last few family comedies by a late great actor, March 14, 2005

This review is from: Blame it on the Bellboy (DVD)

Dudley Moore was diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy, which is a form of Parksinson's disease, at the age of 62. That's what killed him, and that's why he stopped doing movies. Having said that, I thoroughly enjoyed Blame it on the Bellboy.

It was good to see a much older Moore still getting good acting roles. Of course, he could never do better than his role of Arhur Bach in Arthur and Arthur 2, on the Rocks!

Blame it on the Bellboy is a case of mistaken identity. It's a cast of wildly unusual characters,like Moore, who plays a timid American salesman, trying to save his job by purchasing an Italian villa for his boss, who we only meet over the phone but grow to loath.


There's only place in the movie you might want to cover your child's eyes, otherwise, its great for the whole family!

4.0 out of 5 stars Terrific farce, May 1, 2008

D. R. M. "wicmar" (Minneapolis, MN United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Blame it on the Bellboy (DVD)

This movie did poorly at the box office when it came out, and I could never figure out why. It's a splendid black farce of mistaken identity that never lets up; a kind of hybrid of French sex farce (think Feydeau) and British gangster comedy (think early Alec Guinness comedies). And it's a terrific sort of valedictory for the late, great Dudley Moore. If you love a good farce, you've got to see this flick.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good entertainment, June 20, 2000

This review is from: Blame It on the Bellboy [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Sure the movie is silly and the story farfetched and somewhat predictable, but it is good entertainment and joy for 1 1/2 hours.
