"Bedtime Story" is a decent film. Good humor is such, but in my viewpoint it cannot be compared to "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels", the remake from 1988. Not leastly because Michael Caine's "Dr. Emil Schauffhausen" is way better than David Niven's role of the same name. Marlon Brando also makes a good role of Freddy Benson.
"Bedtime Story" is quite enjoyable, particularly the ending - although it doesn't stand up to - again "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels".
The script, however, could have been tightened here and there, tgough there are quotes that makes it OK. The prequelpart where Brando is in Germany makes a lot of good, that was lacking in the remake.
All in all it is a light and easy comedy that makes it worth watching - just for that. Still it scores one point short of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
