Movie Reviews of The Best of Benny Hill
Movie Review: Lacking
Summary: 2 Stars
Benny Hill fans will be disappointed. Lacks some of the better skits, and the quality of the video is lacking.Movie Review: May not be the best of Benny HIll
Summary: 2 Stars
There is so much of Benny around, the best becomes a judgment call. I would choose differently.Movie Review: The absolute worst of Benny Hill
Summary: 1 Stars
I knew that not all of his sketches were gems, but Benny Hill has done a great number of hilarious chase scenes, pie gags, and cheeky humor. Why didn't we get THOSE sketches?
Instead, this dvd is filled with mostly low energy bits that fail to inspire a chortle. The sound and picture quality are bad too, but the sketches themselves are the greatest insult. The worst of them is saved for last, when Benny comes out dressed as an Asian man with a supreme intolerance for all races. The issue of racial intolerance itself is an unpopular one now, but if the bit was funny, one might forgive it as a classic joke from an earlier era. It's not funny, just offensive.
Movie Review: Horrible picture quality, but great contents!
Summary: 1 Stars
I had VHS version with the same contents as this DVD. I decided to buy this dvd expecting to have better picture and some extras. These are my truly technical comments about this DVD: 1) No extra features! No subtitles at all! If a trailer is an extra then I'm wrong here. 2) Picture quality is really poor. It's so bad that my VHS version plays with much better picture quality than this DVD. (DVD Player is not the problem as it works fine with the rest of my DVD collection). Probably I will just throw it out and stay with VHS version. :(
Contents of this disk is great!
Movie Review: The most boring of Benny Hill
Summary: 1 Stars
...would have been a more appropriate title. Having watched the TV series in the 80s with much delight and pleasure, I was appalled and very disappointed what I watched on this DVD. Whoever was responsible to make this selection, deserves to be awarded with the order of "Humorless Bore". But, hey, if you need something to exercise your yawn muscles with, this is the right movie for you. I have given it one star, because it is not possible to select a zero. My final comment - a total waste of time and money.
