strives to be offbeat and sometimes works itself into a sweat doing so. The humor often hits the bullseye, however...

Unfortunately, only about half of the many jokes and gags in the film are actually funny.

Forget Citizen Kane. As a matter of history, this seminal film is unquestionably the finest work of cinema ever made. Required viewing for all students and fans of the art form.
