Movie Reviews of Murder By Death
Movie Review: Excellent Classic Comedy Sets the Standard
Summary: 5 Stars
A favorite movie since I was a child, I was thrilled to finally have this movie on DVD. Featuring excellent performances by classic actors at the top of their craft, the smart dialog, and amazingly detailed hilarious sequences are all performed effortlessly by such giants as Maggie Smith, Peter Falk, Eileen Brannan, James Coco and Peter Sellers, amongst others. A classic must-have for anyone who loves excellent comedy (and while I love the movie CLUE as well, they obviously had seen this one first and the original is better! ;-)Movie Review: When I first saw it in the theatre, I went right back!
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say I have ever laughed at anything so hard since. Neil Simon's parody of the 1930's and 1940's detective stories is superbly cast: Peter Falk plays Sam Spade, James Coco is Hercule Poirot, Peter Sellers is Charlie Chan, David Niven and Maggie Smith are reflections of Nick and Nora Charles. They're all summoned to Truman Capote's home to try and find out who is trying to kill them all. It's Simon intermixed with Clue and neither suffers for the blending. ENDORE! ENDORE!Movie Review: Murder by Death
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the funniest "who dun its" I have ever watched. The puns flow like water, there are lots of laugh out loud scenes, and the casting was excellent. Although it doesn't have vulgarities, x-rated love scenes, or gallons of blood, and is suitable for children and adults alike, it remains quite a hilarious movie. Peter Falk, David Niven, Peter Sellers, Alec Guinness, Nancy Walker, James Coco, Eileen Brennan, Maggie Smith, and several others, were great.Movie Review: murder by death kills with laughs!
Summary: 5 Stars
murder by death has to be one of the best movies made
in the 70's. it seems nobody ever mentions this movie.
written by neil simon it's just as funny as the odd
couple. one liners just keep coming. the casting is
just brilliant. peter falk, davin niven, peter sellers
alec guiness and truman capote make this a classic!
of course the surprise ending is still a surprise even
after the movie ends! i love it! highly recommended.
Movie Review: Murder By Death Kills
Summary: 5 Stars
If you're a fan of detective spoofs and whodunit mysteries, Murder By Death is a must-see as the film that inspired the private-eye parodies that followed it. Filled with slapstick, double entendre, dry witticisms, and sight gags, this movie has something for everyone, especially those who can appreciate all of the above. It features an all-star cast, including Peter Sellers (The Pink Panther), Maggie Smith (Harry Potter), and a hilarious Peter Falk (Columbo).
