Marty Feldman stars in and directs this send-up of the ultimate French Foreign Legion storyline. The result lies somewhere between Mel Brooks and the English sense of humor best known to American audiences in the form of Monty Python. Though it has a few clever moments, it has just as many “yeah, that didn’t work like you thought it would” gags. On the other hand, I thought this was hysterical when I was a kid, so maybe I’m just not the target audience anymore. Mildly amusing
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
