Arm and a leg for few laughs

With the late great legendary comedian Peter Sellers receiving top billing, I patiently endured three quarters of WRONG ARM OF THE LAW. To the point of embarassment, the Australian IPO gang repeatedly intercepts loot from established British criminals. Is there supposed to be an irony to being fooled more than a half dozen times by the same routine? During the last quarter of the movie there is a not-quite redeeming sting operation devolving to a comedy of errors.
Mob boss Pearly Gates (Sellers) adeptly demonstrates his flair for British and French accents -- even providing humorous inspiration for Martin Short's later role as Franck in [[ASIN:B0007RT9M6 FATHER OF THE BRIDE]] (1991). But primarily, Sellers portrays an eloquent organizer -- significantly more refined than Inspector Clouseau in THE PINK PANTHER. If you are interested in seeing criminals make light of the "Bobbies" don't part with more than five bucks or you've been robbed.
Movie quote: "These are some of the finest pieces to be found in London." "Well, then I shall have to go to Paris." |
