Rentadick

We have watched this movie twice this week and my daughter and I both think it is very funny. Ronald Fraser could not be funnier. If you didn't like this movie, try it again. Rentadick should be considered a cult classic.

I watched "Rentadick", as I assume most people might, solely because I learned that John Cleese and Graham Chapman co-wrote the script; however, in my version at least, they are both uncredited, so they either took their names off out of embarrassment, or their initial work was completely discarded. In either case, the final script is godawful. The direction is so clumsy that it is impossible to know who is in any given scene or what they are trying to do; in its own way, this film is as hard to understand as any of Tarkovsky's work. The cast is a who-is-not-who of British film comedy; the only face (among other parts....) I recognized was Julie Ege. They say few people have actually seen "Rentadick" and lived to tell the tale. Don't risk it. 0 out of 4 stars.

This woeful 70s comedy was, believe it or not, scripted by some of the Monty Python team. Appalled at the result they removed their names from the credits leaving John Fortune to carry the blame for 'additional dialogue'. 'Rentadick' probably did seem like a good idea but somewhere along the way it went badly wrong.

Funny? No. The cast - ok, stand up Richard Briers, Donald Sinden, Ronald Fraser, James Booth, Kenneth Cope, Spike Milligan, and Richard Beckinsale. All showed a major misjudgement appearing in this rubbish. Don't waste your time - there's little to raise a smile in this pathetic movie.

This film was presented by Rank once dedicated to family films.No X certificates or suggestive fare.He must have been turning in his grave. This has to be one of the worst sex farces of the seventies.It really deserves 0/10

How one film can so woefully underuse such a great line up of actors and actresses beggars belief. A lame script laces poor and very unfunny jokes.

An all round pathetic film.
