4.0 out of 5 stars All-star heist comedy., June 12, 2005

By	R. Christenson "SpaceComics.com" (Pine, CO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Who's Minding The Mint is one of those all-star cast heist comedies, funnier than Ocean's Eleven, but with lower-caliber stars.
Jim Hutton (Ellery Queen) works at the U.S. Mint inspecting $100 bills. A paper cutter, Dorothy Provine (The 30 Foot Bride of Candy Rock), is interested in him romantically, so keeps giving him her awful fudge. Nervous under the eye of his boss, a pompous overbearing self-indulgent imitation dictator, Hutton accidently brushes a stack of bills ($50,000 worth) into a bag of her fudge, which he later empties into his garbage disposal. Hutton doesn't think his boss, a pompous overbearing self-indulgent imitation dictator, will believe him, and decides it should be simple enough to print replacement bills - after all, he works in the mint, right? But as he puts together his plan, a growing number of apparently barely competent partners is gradually assembled, including Jack Gilford (Cocoon), Milton Berle (The Muppet Movie), Bob Denver (Gilligan's Island), Jamie Farr (MASH), Walter Brennan (3-time Oscar winner; The Westerner, To Have and Have Not, Sergeant York, Meet John Doe, Goodbye My Lady, etc.), Joey Bishop (Ocean's Eleven), Victor Buono (Man From Atlantis). They are all required for their various skills to assemble a boat and navigate it through the sewers to sneak into the mint after hours, retrieve plates from a safe, print and cut the money, and get away undetected. Of course, they all require a share of the loot. And of course, not everything goes exactly as planned. The first time I saw Who's Minding The Mint, when I was a kid, I thought it was one of the funniest movies ever. I will admit that after repeated viewing some of the comedy seems trite. But it should be funny if you've never seen it before, and is still of interest to trivia buffs, for the massive cast listed above.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best movies of all times., September 13, 2004

By	Steven Thayer (Waldport,, OR. United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you liked It,s A Mad Mad Mad Wourld, you will love Who's Minding The Mint?. It,s as funny now, as the first time I watched it as a Kid. I think this movie would be great on DVD, It,s wonderful entertainment for entire family, The actors are marvelous. The trouble they an get into trying to do the right thing and help a friend, will make the laughter contagious for everyone who sees this movie. I look forward to this one on DVD soon.
