Review by planktonrules

Blondie Knows Best

7/10

Dagwood is Mr. Dithers and Mr. Dithers is Dagwood....understand?!

"Blondie Knows Best" is among the strangest of the Blondie and Dagwood films. First, the title has absolutely nothing to do with the picture. Second, it ends with brain doctors experimenting on Dagwood (I can only suppose they wanted a brain with little wear)! Odd...but still enjoyable.

The story begins with idiot Dagwood going to meet a neighbor and offer him a helping hand with fixing his car. In the process of providing unwanted help, Dagwood destroys the man's car and garage...and spends the rest of the film running from a process server because this neighbor is suing him...and deservedly so.

Shortly after this, Mr. Dithers gets in a fight with a stranger...only to find out it's a potential client!! So, to get out of insulting the man, he pretends to be Dagwood and begs Dagwood to pretend to be him!! As a result, things get awfully confusing.

The story is wacky and weird...but still fun. Also, while Blondie gets a bit miffed when Dagwood (as Mr. Dithers) is out with the client and some sexy ladies, she's not the green-eyed monster filled with jealousy she was in a few of the other Blondie films...realizing her beloved Dagwood wouldn't cheat on her. Worth seeing...but odd.
