Let's be clear from the start. I'm a massive Bob Hope fan. I'm also aware that there are those who don't share my appreciation.
Such people will mark his films down just for the sake of it.
They got me covered is a marvelous romp with the gags coming fast and faster.
Bob was rarely faster.
Bob was rarely funnier.
It's a familiar story with Bob playing Richard Hannay. The 39 steps provided the perfect template for all sorts of films.
I laugh and laugh at this film even after over 50 years of watching.
Bob always had the best gag writers and those production values clearly show here.
Of course you're supposed to see some gags way ahead. It's that kind of humour.
Bob wasn't often better than in this wonderful comedy.
A film for people who like comedies. Just make sure you're up to speed.
