Noises Off... (1992)
7/10
Theatrical Hilarity
17 September 1998
"Noises Off!" is a great movie, almost as good as the play, but not quite. The play hinges around an excellent ensemble performance, led by Michael Caine, who is simply fantastic as Lloyd. Carol Burnett, John Ritter, Marilu Henner, Christopher Reeve and Mark Linn-Baker are excellent additions to this cast, and it was nice to see them in roles different than their usual. The writing of the new material that was not in the play is horrendous, but what remains of Michael Frayn's original script is worth seeing over and over. Watch the movie, but then see the play.
