BROTHERS IN LAW is a typically likeable Boulting Brothers comedy featuring another winning turn from Ian Carmichael playing his usual 'ninny' character. This time he's a junior solicitor in a law firm headed by the wonderfully offbeat Miles Malleson. Much of the film consists of Carmichael bumbling his way through the episodic story and encountering various guest performers in the shape of Eric Barker, Richard Attenborough and the great Terry-Thomas. It's a breezy, effortless type of comedy of the kind they made so well in the 1950s.
