THIS is widely considered to be one of the greatest comedies in film history? I am completely stumped on that one. All that I saw here were a few charismatic performances and the occasional scene that made me chuckle. For me at least, this film stands as proof that absurdity does not necessarily create huge laughter. There was a tremendous waste of talent in this movie, and that makes it all the more annoying. In particular, Cleavon Little stands out as an actor who did a great job but had little material to work with. This is one of the most disappointing films that I have ever seen.
