WHERE THERE'S A WILL is one of the earlier Will Hay comedies and not one of the funniest either. It's a stilted, slightly overlong tale in which Hay plays the usual hapless individual who ends up getting caught up with a gang of robbers and becoming an accomplice of sorts. There are many staged gags and the like, but they're quite drawn out and pedestrian at times. Graham Moffatt shows up for the first of many appearances with Hay and poverty row director Beaudine handles the static direction, but aside from Hay's sterling efforts there's little here to write home about.
