After being criticized for producing mostly spoof movies, Mel Brooks departed from that genre and returned to the semi-real world of his early two films "The Producers" and "The Twelve Chairs." "Life Stinks" is a Chaplinesque fable that focused on the very real problems of America's homeless. While it was met with indifference by the moviegoing public and critics took turns hurling brickbats, practically inviting derision due to the title, there were a few perceptive reviewers who recognized that this was Brooks' most sincere and daring effort in years. Perhaps if the title of this film had been "Life Is Beautiful," it would have met a different fate. Nevertheless, this film is an important entry into the Brooks canon. Putting his money where his mouth is, Mel Brooks made a strong social statement as well as an entertaining film. It's his most personal work since "The Producers."
