Bewertung von Mrkitzle
A very attractive cast and a couple of good musical numbers make for reasonably good entertainment. Far different from the TV series that came a few years later (and not as good in my opinion), this feature was actually inspired by the Max Shulman Dobie Gillis stories from the forties. Shulman, who also wrote the the screenplay for this movie, does manage to work in bits and pieces of his short stories into the script, but not too successfully. The reason for this is that the original stories were stand-alone brilliant comic masterpieces. Here we just see a little scene from this one, and one from that one, and so on. The way to really, really enjoy Dobie Gillis is to track down the out-of-print collection, "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis"(easily available at Amazon). I'm a fan of the TV series, and I like this movie, but neither can hold a candle to the hilarious short stories that served as the original inspiration for both the TV and screen versions.
By the way, it was only about two years ago that I read the original stories. They are every bit as wonderful today as when they were originally written.

An incoherent plot (if you want to call it that) punctuated by equally incoherent action scenes. Zero suspense. There's a clever moment every now and then, but there aren't many, and they're not that clever. I felt like walking out the first twenty minutes but stuck it out. Don't ask me why. Final verdict: over the top stupidity. Two stars for Banderas' and Depp's fabulous clothes.
