Movie Reviews of Around the World in 80 Days (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Movie Review: Around the world in 80 days
Summary: 5 Stars
A long but very entertaining movie which would appeal to older viewers remembering so many actors in unexpected bit parts - e.g. Bustor Keaton, Frank Sinatra. David Niven and Cantinflas are excellent and the cost of making this film in so many countries would have been enormous.
Summary of Around the World in 80 Days (Two-Disc Special Edition)
A Victorian gentleman and his valet wager that they can go around the world in only 80 days.Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: NR
Release Date: 18-MAY-2004
Media Type: DVD
This Mike Todd production was a star-studded, multi-million dollar extravaganza when first released in 1956. It remains enjoyable family fare, but time has somewhat dulled its shine. Still, it compares favorably to the overly long, TV mini-series starring Pierce Brosnan and Eric Idle.
Elegant David Niven plays the neurotically punctual Phileas Fogg, a British gent who is spurned on by a wager to prove he can travel around the world in 80 days. He is accompanied by his valet, played with persnickety humor by Cantinflas.
Nominated for several Academy Awards, this was written by John Farrow (Mia's dad) and S.J. Perelman, based on Jules Verne's 1873 classic. The fun part is the razzle-dazzle. Todd knew what he was doing with all those exotic locales and over 40 cameo appearances, including Charles Boyer, Ronald Colman, Marlene Dietrich, Jos? Greco, Peter Lorre, Buster Keaton, Frank Sinatra, and Red Skelton. A very young Shirley MacLaine was painted and dyed to play a lively Indian Princess. --Rochelle O'Gorman
