WITTY AND MORE

Rating: 8/10 (14 November 2002)

Brilliantly funny satire about inept gangsters at different levels contriving schemes to rip off one another without knowing exactly what they are doing and to whom.
Reminiscent of the great 50s and early 60s British comedies that feature Alistair Sims and Peter Sellers in their early days.
Problem is that since the Beatles disappeared and Americans have become infatuated with "Ebonics" and "Spanglish" much of dialetic humor or British slang needs to be replayed on the video for most of us to really appreciate it.
If you liked "Snatch" and are quick and sober when you watch this you will laugh your 'tush' off. Many would appreciate 'subtitles' though.
