This review is from: Last Remake of Beau Geste [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a hilarious spoof. Don't forget the scene where Marty Feldman is placed in the Gary Cooper version. It also has several great sight gags. I am looking forward to this being available on DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars A british Mel Brooks film, October 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Last Remake of Beau Geste [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Marty Feldman proves that he learned well from the master parodist Mel Brooks with this humorous spoof of BEAU GESTE. Recommended primarily for fans of raunchy humor, and fans of British comedy. This film has several hilarious bits: the used camel salesman, clips from the old BEAU GESTE films, and Jack the Ripper ("We ask no questions here."), and Feldman's tribute to silent comedy.

4.0 out of 5 stars A bizarre comedy, good sight gags & every British comedien!, March 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Last Remake of Beau Geste [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I like it! From the opening gimmic of the 'finger in the sky', which we've all dreamed of, to the 'Damn this thirst' ending it's a feast of the odd-ball. Mr Malten is right, Spike Milligan is superb as the butler but I think the scene stealer is Peter Ustiniov's horse! If you have an interest in British comic talent (yes there is some) then just about all British comedians do a cameo here. The original movie cops a hit as well and why not? This movie is best viewed with normality suspended and the ability to laugh at the absurd jammed on full.
