The Freshman may not be the best comedy ever, but it's definitely a worthwhile effort and worthy of viewing, even repeat viewing, IMO. The Mafia spoofs are done well (any Godfather fan should see this for sure), and the performances by Brando, Broderick, and Bruno Kirby are excellent. 726629@blogcritics.org Mon, 16 Jun 2008 10:33:25 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/04/22/171803.php#comment-713180 as are you, i can see how some people would like it and i've definitely seen much worse just wasn't my cup of tea 713180@blogcritics.org Thu, 24 Apr 2008 03:06:48 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/04/22/171803.php#comment-713176 ur entiteld to a pov mate... cheers 713176@blogcritics.org Thu, 24 Apr 2008 02:52:18 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/04/22/171803.php#comment-713074 thanks for the info 713074@blogcritics.org Wed, 23 Apr 2008 17:40:16 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/04/22/171803.php#comment-713014 El Bicho - Bergman was the one who came up with the story behind Blazing Saddles and was one of five writers who penned the screenplay, but his major contribution was the story itself kbrai - I respect your opinion, but I definitely got the film, I just thought it was dumb but to each his own I personnally think there are certain comedies that are brilliant that many others think are dumb 713014@blogcritics.org Wed, 23 Apr 2008 12:46:24 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/04/22/171803.php#comment-713011 "Bergman previously showed immense comedic promise with his screenplay work on Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles" What part was his? 713011@blogcritics.org Wed, 23 Apr 2008 12:32:53 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/04/22/171803.php#comment-712974 dont agree at all mate. the freshman is a class act. subtle intelligent humour. the only thing pedestrian about it is the komodo dragon in the mall scene. its a great film and all i can say is you just dint get it. cheers 712974@blogcritics.org Wed, 23 Apr 2008 08:28:22 EDT
