One previous IMDB reviewer actually conceded how unfunny this thing is but defended it on the grounds that it's really a drama disguised as a comedy. Oh lordy. Suffice it to say that in the forty five minutes or so that I watched there was nothing even remotely dramatic going on, not even of the melo sort. Just a lot of comedy mirages and by that I mean scenes like the sleeping car sequence and Lewis' first attempt at song that, when first viewed, promised hilarity but the closer you got the more the laughs dried up. That this was Lewis' favorite of the duo's films should tell you all you need to know about Jerry's taste and the overall quality of the M and L movies. C minus.
