4.0 out of 5 stars THAT'S CARRY ON!, May 27, 2001

By

This review is from: Carry on Cleo [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Carry On Cleo is one of the series entries that will always be remembered. It simply is classic British comedy at it's best. When filming at Pinewood studios for the disastorous epic, Cleopatra, starring Elizabeth Taylor, was abandoned there, Peter rodgers and Gerald Thomas just could'nt resist the advantage of the lavish and spectacular sets, making it all look a lot more extravagent than most of the other Carry On's that were filmed on a shoe string budget. the cast are all on top form with Kenneth Williams as Julius Caesar and Sid James as Mark Anthony, delivering the funniest lines. Also included in the cast are Amanda Barrie in the title role, Joan Sims, Jim Dale, Kenneth Connor as well as guest appearances from acclaimed classical actress, Sheila Hancock and Warren Mitchell from the classic sitcom, Till Death Do Us Part.

Hilarious from beginning to end and packed full of classic one liners ("infamy, infamy, they've all got in for me" cries Kenneth Williams as Julius Caesar as he is about to be killed). This is a absolutley essential Carry On and is a great one to induct somebody who has never heard of this long running and triumphantly succesful British comedy series.

This review is from: Carry on Cleo [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If the above title has you chuckling, this is the movie for you! A spoof of Anthony & Cleopatra done in the inimitable Carry On style. Jim Dale & Kenneth Connor as the heroic Ancient Brits, Sid James as the asp-chomping Mark Anthony, and Bernard Bresslaw as Agrippa the bodyguard are all classic characters. My personal favourite Carry On. They don't make 'em like this any more!

4.0 out of 5 stars Historical mayhem!, June 10, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Carry on Cleo [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Another romp through the historically incorrect, but funny, past. Sydney James and company are Romans (Caesar and friends) who meet up with the legendary Cleopatra in ancient Egypt. As usual with the Carry On team, mayhem rules, and history is changed to include the humorous interpretation of the British. Well worth watching!
