Good Tom Jones vibe

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 19, 2022

Verified Purchase

I hadn't seen this movie in a million years, but remember watching it on TV way back; the story is light and fun and it looks like everyone's having a good time making this movie. I'm not a huge Gene Wilder fan, but he did well here mixing it up with Donald Sutherland, and the story just kept on rolling. Would be a good marathon with Tom Jones, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, and Around the World in 80 Days ('56 version). I believe the old term describing this kind of movie would be "whacky". Enjoy!

Why isn't this movie more popularized? The writing is brilliant, had my family in stiches, and fun to quote afterwards. If you're looking for a great cult classic and you're a big fan of Gene Wilder, please give this gem a go!

Good but Not Great

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

I loved this film as a kid and wanted to rewatch it. While I love everyone involved including Gene Wilder, Donald Sutherland, and the genius Orson Welles, the film wasn’t quite as funny as I remembered it. The performances are great, and it’s an entertaining film I’m sure I’ll watch again, but for me it’s just one of those films or tv shows you revisit out of nostalgia only to be slightly let down due to your over-inflated expectations.

Hilarious Take On "The Corsican Brothers"

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 18, 2021

Verified Purchase

Dvd arrived quickly and in great condition. Thanks Sosa Media. Hilarious take on the Alexander Dumas book, "The Corsican Brothers" even funnier than Cheech and Chongs film. Widescreen, 90+min., English, French and Spanish subtitles, some special features. Lots of laughs, action and just plain old stupidity. Wilder is totally over the top, Hugh Griffith too.

Can I help it if I have this enormous stride....look at it Man!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 2, 2001

Verified Purchase

This hilarious comedy takes the story of the Corsican Brothers and fractures it with two sets of mismatched twins, both played by Donald Sutherland and Gene Wilder, one set raised as the noble brothers, the other as peasants. Throw in the France of Louis XVI just before the revolution and you've got the setting for this totally screwball comedy.

Bud Yorkin & Norman Lear (of All in the Family) directed and produced and added a cast of the best English comedians to their two stars, Sutherland & Wilder. This includes: Hugh Griffith as the befuddled King; Billie Whitelaw as a randy Marie Antoinette; Victor Spinetti as the reptilian Count Escargot; Jack MacGowran as the seedy Revolutionary amongst others. Oh, and Ewa Aulin (she played Candy) is delicious.

When Gene Wilder goes nuts, no one can match him for hilarity. As the arrogant, pigheaded, lightning-tempered Corsican nobleman he is just simply wonderful. Sutherland's foppish brother is a perfect counterpoint.

There is so much good stuff in this that one could go on at length (the Ball with everyone passing notes of intrigue and the King in his chicken costume is just one). Suffice it to say, they threw in the kitchensink with one-liners, references to Dumas and every kind of swashbuckler, non-sequiters, puns etc.

A crazy madcap just-for-fun all-out comedy. One of the best ever made. A Classic. See it.

Rollicking Ribald Raucous Revolutionary Romp

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 1, 2014

Verified Purchase

What can you say about a movie that has Louis XVI decked out in a metallic chicken suit at a palace reception? The central conceit that the fate of the French monarchy was the result of twins switched at birth, two being the notorious Corsican brothers and the other lowly peasants, is for the most part fully realized in this hysterical historical parody. Some of the humor is slapdash but the jokes, both spoken and visual, come at such a rapid fire clip that you hardly notice any lulls. Gene Wilder and Donald Sutherland are superb in their dual roles. Good cast of British veterans including Hugh Griffith, Billie Whitelaw, Jack MacGowran, and the irrepressible Victor Spinetti. Orson Welles offers an amusing cameo as...Orson Welles. A gem from the creative team of Bud Yorkin and Norman Lear who would be instrumental later in revolutionizing network television with shows like "All in the Family" and "Sanford and Son".

Wit, humour, good acting and gorgeous costumes and sets.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 22, 2015

Verified Purchase

Well worth watching for the historic settings and wonderful costumes alone. The ballroom scene is visually gorgeous and has some of the most accurate 18th Century court costumes ever done for film. Princess Helene de Sisi's gown and hairstyle is lifted straight out of the 18th Century.

The wit, humour and comedy has held up pretty well given the age of the film. Wilder and Sutherland are well suited to this sort of comedic style and complement each other. If you ignore the few silly bits there is enough dry wit, and irony here for an entertaining experience. Shot at several real French chateau giving the film an authenticity that saves it from being too over the top.

This Movie, once very funny, has dated a bit.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 26, 2021

Verified Purchase

When I last saw this movie, 30 years ago, I thought it one of Gene Wilder's best and funniest. I tried to buy it for years afterwards, like many other people. Now, having recieved this Spanish version, with English option,
I have to say it has dated rather badly. Some of the jokes are still funny, but Wilder himself has made many more funny and sophisticated movies, many of which have stood the test of time better than this one. I still root out Young Frankenstein when I need a laugh, but this one goes to a friend who is learning Spanish.

The peasants are revolting

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 1, 2017

Verified Purchase

Very zany comedy (with Orson Welles as the narrator), where two sets of twins are mismatched and given to their respective families, one poor commoners and one titled. Loosely set during the French Revolution pythonesque type humour ensues, with very funny consequences and brilliant turns from all concerned, especially Hugh Griffith, Gene Wilder and Donald Sutherland, also good to see the great Irish actor Jack MacGowran having fun in this comedy.

A gem of a madcap comedy. Gene Wilder and Donald Sunderland are at their comic best, supported by a panoply of British stars, including Billie Whitelaw and Victor Spinetti. A hilarious retelling of the Corsican brothers story.
