Review of Hellzapoppin' (1941) by Ian R — 17 Jan 2008
Jesus murphy this was bonkos. Madcap insanity that plays with the audience, breaks the fourth wall, and generally follows no logic whatsoever. It occasionally slows down with some musical numbers but one with a lindy hop done by a jazz band was crazy intense.
So many jokes are tossed around, some of which work, some of which don't at such a rapid pace that you never dwell on anything for too long. I'm shocked that this is not more remembered than it is.
