Movie Reviews of The Wrong Arm of the Law
Movie Review: Not one of my favorites
Summary: 3 Stars
While the premise held promise, this movie just didn't hang together very well. Lionel Jeffries's part was too thin for him to get his teeth in the way he did in Two Way Stretch. Peter Sellers seemed half hearted at times in this one as well. The business where the gang suspects that there is a mole in the organization goes nowhere. Nanette Newman's part was too thin as well especially since she was the mole. It has a lot of fine bits and funny gags, but too many very fine actors in this movie looked like they had wandered into the wrong movie by mistake.
Summary of The Wrong Arm of the Law
In this hilarious crime comedy, Peter Sellers stars as Pearly Gates, the cockney kingpin of London's most efficient gang of thieves, organizing spectacular robberies from behind the front of a haute-coutrre dress salon. Everything goes well until the police start appearing after every job to confiscate the loot. The astute Pearly realizes there's a traitor in his gan, and no one is above suspicion - not even his enticing girlfriend Valerie.Art House & International DVD Video
