Movie Reviews of Robin and the Seven Hoods
Movie Review: Alcohol is Evil
Summary: 5 Stars
1964, the barbarians are at the door and the Rat Pack wises up fast to what they do best. Sing, that is, and that they do. Except for Falk's warbly little intro number, all the musical selections are incredible. (Falk adds a lot to the movie as dry comic support it should be noted.) Martin's "Any Man Who Loves His Mother" is made sweetly perverse by it's accompanying business, namely pool hustling, and Davis Jr.'s amazing machine gun dance routine on "Bang Bang" especially shines. It's a hoot when Crosby, Martin and Sinatra all harmonize on "Style" and, of course, even the boss belts one out all by hisself ("My Kind of Town"), his last musical performance on screen. Crosby, nearing the finish line of a very long career, gets one-and-a-half turns singing and they is all swell. He's a such a swell. These guys are cool in a way that cool can't ever be cool again. Rock and roll, yeh yeh yeh, may endure another half century or more, who cares, but this kind of song and dance can never be resurrected. It's too cool for a white hot world gone hard of hearing. So behold it here, summer of '64. Before the hippies and the draft and the riots and the burning bras. There's loads of chuckles, decent pacing, pretty sets (with an amusing gimmick trick), wacky male bonding, symmetry with the female lead, silliness, sure, and even a wicked little spin on the old morality at the end. This film is a good time all around, maybe a touch stronger in the first hour, but, whatever, pallie, don't sweat it, bet on it.
