4/10
Pretty Bad Showcase for Radio Shows
25 December 2007
Warning: Spoilers
I was pretty disappointed after watching this and I am a big fan of all these personalities. Maybe thats the problem, beyond the horrible joke writing, there are too many personalities and each seems to need as much time as the others so it's like many other movies with bad writing and too many stars, its pretty bad. Gildersleeves is a bad guy in this one. McGee and Mollie succumb to slapstick jokes instead of domestic wit, Baby Snooks is even in this one but is not credited and is dubbed onto Mollie while she talks on the phone. There's no Mortimer Snerd. It's just really long and a labor to watch. I'm really disappointed in that I made my wife watch it with me without pre screening it first, I doubt she'll grow to love OTR as I have. I give it a 4 of 10 and thats being generous to see the stars in a film, the writing in this is very unfunny. There are much better movies with Charlie in them, and those are when he is with WC Fields.
