VHS Movie Reviews of Murder By Death
Movie Review: Excellent Comedy from the 1970s
Summary: 4 Stars
Very funny comedy from the 1970s and I liked it even more now that I'm more familiar with the characters being parodied. Acting is fantastic - great ensemble cast and great sight gags. Well worth the cost of the DVD; wish they made them this funny nowadays.Movie Review: personal top #10
Summary: 5 Stars
If you haven't had the chance to see it then trust me and please buy it! Laughs are assured!!Movie Review: Murder By Death Kills
Summary: 5 Stars
If you're a fan of detective spoofs and whodunit mysteries, Murder By Death is a must-see as the film that inspired the private-eye parodies that followed it. Filled with slapstick, double entendre, dry witticisms, and sight gags, this movie has something for everyone, especially those who can appreciate all of the above. It features an all-star cast, including Peter Sellers (The Pink Panther), Maggie Smith (Harry Potter), and a hilarious Peter Falk (Columbo). Movie Review: Murder by Death - DVD

Summary of Murder By Death
Neil Simon wrote this 1976 spoof in which virtually every famous fictional detective of the 1930s and 1940s congregate at the home of a mysterious fellow (Truman Capote) to try and solve the mystery of who's trying to kill them all. Simon's jokes are mostly obvious, and the film's real appeal is the clever concept matched with fine--sometimes legendary--actors. Peter Falk plays a very Bogart-like Sam Spade equivalent, James Coco is a Hercule Poirot wannabe, Peter Sellers does a Charlie Chan bit, David Niven and Maggie Smith are reflections of Nick and Nora.... You get the picture. Lighthearted and silly, this is cotton-candy comedy for the cast as well as viewers. --Tom KeoghParty Films Video
