Movie Reviews of The Night They Raided Minsky's
Movie Review: Take Ten Terrific Girls -- And Only Nine Costumes....
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally, the glorious MINSKY'S makes it to DVD! Not a perfect movie, by any means, but one of the most charming ever made. While the picture has many pleasures, ranging from Bert Lahr's last turn as the washed-up Professor Spats (a role that had to be whittled down when Lahr died mid-production), to fine performances from Jason Robards -- his dead eyes have never been put to better use than here as the predatory comic -- and Norman Wisdom, showing us why he was so beloved in England, MINSKY'S crowning glory is that enchantress, Britt Ekland. All peaches and cream and a smile that could light up Broadway, the lady may not be much of an actress, but she's dazzling here. Add a chorus line of lovable schlumps, a tenor who's seen better days, hilarious choreography from Danny Daniels, a delightful score from Strouse and Adams (you'll recognize one tune here they recycled for ANNIE), and throw in a fine jazz band -- and you're cooking up something hot! This film's headed to Broadway as a full-scale musical, but while we're waiting, there's plenty of entertainment waiting for you at Minsky's on the Lower East Side. Can you tell I LOVE this movie?
