Movie Reviews of The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob
Movie Review: THE FUNNIEST FILM I HAVE EVER SEEN
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally saw an English version of this film in a cinema over 30 years ago and was delighted to find it was available on DVD. The fact that the soundtrack on the DVD is in French, one of the (n-1) languages I do not speak, made no difference to my enjoyment of seeing it again. This film tells a good story. It is inoffensive. The acting is superb, with just enough exaggeration to remove the content from the reality of everyday life and enable the viewer recapture the experience of seeing a proper movie. The humour ranges from the subtle to the extreme slapstick and the result is one very, very funny film. I have no hesitation in stating it is the funniest one I have ever seen. There are lots of other good comedies but none come close to The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob. It is in a class of its own. I hope the version with the English soundtrack will be produced as a DVD soon.
