3/10
Unbelievably Unfunny Jerry Lewis
2 September 2013
Warning: Spoilers
From the opening scene of his walking thru London with the bowler and parasol, this movie is really a study of an ego at it's worst.

As others have said, saving graces in this film are Cribbens, Routledge and Thomas.

Lewis fails at any kind of humor or reasoning throughout the entire film. Why turn the house into a disco in the first place? Endless stunt after stunt has no reason.

When I saw Abbott and Costello's show, I couldn't help but think Costello reminded me of Lewis' idea of comedy; just watch me and I'm funny.

Even worse is Lewis' one-liners or attempts at such. None of them are funny.

Watch this movie to see a study of an ego. For that matter, you can do this with many of Lewis' movies.
