5.0 out of 5 stars A real bargain for the Steven Martin aficionado..., December 19, 2007

This review is from: Steve Martin: The Wild and Crazy Comedy Collection (Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid / The Jerk / The Lonely Guy) (DVD)

This is a five star rating of three DVDs as a bargain, which is different from rating each movie as a five star movie.

In this collection of three movies done early in his acting career, Steve Martin is cast in roles taking advantage of his unique forms of comedy, slapstick, and sophistication. We have:

- **** Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (with its use of cameos from other films and the infamous "Friends and Enemies of Carlotta" list),

- ***** The Jerk (a cult classic... "He hates cans!), and

- *** The Lonely Guy ( the sleeper... literally something in between the comedy of The Jerk and "seriousness" of Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid).

The weaker movie of the three is The Lonely Guy, a movie of the Neil Simon play, but if you consider it a freebie in this collection, there's no complaint!
