Review – Kentucky Fried Movie

The “Fistful of Yen” sequence in this collection of parody skits remains one of my all-time favorite comedy moments (though of course it helps to see Enter the Dragon first so you’ll get the jokes). The rest is largely hit and miss. Some of the routines are funny on the level of the later Abrahams, Zucker and Zucker hit Airplane! Other skits are too dated to work outside the magical days of the 1970s. And a few weren’t funny to begin with. Still, I have a soft spot in my heart – or perhaps my head – for this movie. I’d give it a slightly higher rating if I wouldn’t be embarrassed to do so. Mildly amusing
