7/10
All to the delightful strains of "Who stole my heart away?"
5 April 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Put on a silent comedy with any music in the background, and you'll find all ages of audiences. As long as the visuals are silly, unrealistic and delightfully dangerous, people will stare. This has the lamest of plots, but the action is fast and hysterical. Beds flying outside for no apparent reason, wacky automobiles in a race, dangerous curves and fast camera movements keep this one going at a breakneck speed. There's always the urge to squint and say ouch because of what happens on the screen, and this is filled with many moments like that. You can see the influences of this style of comedy in classic cartoons, on sitcoms and in films made today. But this has the innocence that most of those genres don't, all over in less than 15 minutes.
