Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3.5/4 --
A brazen, irreverent, and wild satire that hits more often than it misses.

Rating: 3/5 --
It's too long and too silly ("Very silly indeed!") to work in the long run, so feel free to start and stop it at will -- you won't miss a thing.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
Funny, uncomfortable and without an ounce of benevolence.

New York Times
The result is a variety concert of a film in which most of the acts/jokes fall flat.

Time Out
A curdled, unfunny satire made more painful by McGrath's inappropriately jubilant style.

Rating: 5/5 --
Is it all of its era? Yes, most definitely. But it's also as relevant and funny and pointed as it ever was.

Save for some eye-popping cameos, there's nothing very magic about this dated dog's breakfast of a movie.
