    • Variety Staff

      A spotty, uneven satire (from the novel by Terry Southern) with a number of good yocks, but insufficient sustained wit or related action. ( Read More )
    • Derek Adams

      The result is a variety concert of a film in which most of the acts/jokes fall flat. ( Read More )
    • Ali Catterall

      Save for some eye popping cameos, theres nothing very magic about this dated dogs breakfast of a movie. ( Read More )
    • Mark Bourne

      ...drips with low gloss British Mod Pop style and a would be Richard Lester vibe, but with no clue about how to put its abundant British talent, chiefly Peter Sellers, to any worthy purpose beyond playing at adolescent cynicism. ( Read More )
    • A brazen, irreverent, and wild satire that hits more often than it misses. ( Read More )
