VHS Movie Reviews of Who's Minding the Mint
Movie Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I wont bother quoting the plot since it is listed in most of the reviews. but this is a great movie for the whole family, and as many others have said this needs to be released on DVD.
Movie Review: OVERDUE FOR DVD RELEASE!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the funniest of the great all-star cast comedies (even if it doesn't have the total star wattage of movies like It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World and The Great Race)is so overdue for DVD release. Please remaster this one, letterbox it, and do it right... and do it soon! Movie Review: Why No DVD Release Yet?
Summary: 5 Stars
I totally agree with Sonny. Why a movie this funny has not been released on DVD when lower caliber films are clogging up video store shelves is a mystery to me. As far as comedies go, WMTM has got to be in the top 10.
It has been many years since I've seen this movie, but I will never forget the good time I had in watching it. It is a crying shame that WMTM is being allowed to fade in the memories of those who saw it and loved it. Hollywood, are you listening?
Movie Review: WHERE'S THE DVD VERSION OF THIS??
Summary: 5 Stars
Damn! WMTM is one of the funniest flicks EVER MADE! WHY ARE SO MANY LAME TITLES REISSUED AGAIN AND AGAIN AND THIS TITLE HAS YET TO BE RELEASE ONCE ON DVD?? All Star Cast really shines. Fun for whole family. This flick is hilarious! Whoever owns the rights to this puppy please RELEASE IT ASAP ON DVD w/ extra bonuses and crumpets galore! STILL WAITING!Movie Review: All-star heist comedy.
Summary: 4 Stars
Who's Minding The Mint is one of those all-star cast heist comedies, funnier than Ocean's Eleven, but with lower-caliber stars.
Jim Hutton (Ellery Queen) works at the U.S. Mint inspecting $100 bills. A paper cutter, Dorothy Provine (The 30 Foot Bride of Candy Rock), is interested in him romantically, so keeps giving him her awful fudge. Nervous under the eye of his boss, a pompous overbearing self-indulgent imitation dictator, Hutton accidently brushes a stack of bills ($50,000 worth) into a bag of her fudge, which he later empties into his garbage disposal. Hutton doesn't think his boss, a pompous overbearing self-indulgent imitation dictator, will believe him, and decides it should be simple enough to print replacement bills - after all, he works in the mint, right? But as he puts together his plan, a growing number of apparently barely competent partners is gradually assembled, including Jack Gilford (Cocoon), Milton Berle (The Muppet Movie), Bob Denver (Gilligan's Island), Jamie Farr (MASH), Walter Brennan (3-time Oscar winner; The Westerner, To Have and Have Not, Sergeant York, Meet John Doe, Goodbye My Lady, etc.), Joey Bishop (Ocean's Eleven), Victor Buono (Man From Atlantis). They are all required for their various skills to assemble a boat and navigate it through the sewers to sneak into the mint after hours, retrieve plates from a safe, print and cut the money, and get away undetected. Of course, they all require a share of the loot. And of course, not everything goes exactly as planned. The first time I saw Who's Minding The Mint, when I was a kid, I thought it was one of the funniest movies ever. I will admit that after repeated viewing some of the comedy seems trite. But it should be funny if you've never seen it before, and is still of interest to trivia buffs, for the massive cast listed above.
