Search: Starring Leslie Phillips

Alas, the writing lets both film and actors down tremendously.

Using every slapstick and farce joke they can lay their hands on, scriptwriters Jack Davies and Henry Blyth keep the pace rushing along at such a clip you get carried away with their enthusiasm.

No surprises. Nothing to write home about. And yet thoroughly entertaining.

Bruce is always one step ahead, which keeps tension levels low.

This is a half-decent Episode 1 of an action summer blockbuster.

Crumbles under it's own epic intentions and lack of cohesion.

Sprinkled with a heady dose of magic realism, this film is lovely.

In spite of its charm, Ferguson's script suffers from a crisis of conviction, leading to the tamest of endings.

Very much an ensemble piece, it relies heavily on sight gags and cinema business.

O'Toole is simply remarkable. He reinvents himself once again, stealing the breath away with his learned quicksilver wit and charisma.
