Review of Noises Off... (1992) by Edith N — 07 Jan 2013

I love this movie! There seems to be poor reviews all around this flick and perhaps only by the harshest and theatre focused critics. As a person who watches movie and almost rarely see's theatre and who saw this movie before any knowledge of it being a theatre production, found the unique blend of famous celebrity faces and zany characters bonded by the fast pace of the script and story line, found this film to be refreshing, witty, outrageous and very funny.

Of course by the end I shouted out "This would make a great play" and apparantely it is a great one. Perhaps it's like a Cirque du Soleil event. Live is the absolute only way to go, otherwise there genuinely is no point.

But remember, I've never seen the live version of this gem, to me, it's a favorite classic comedy film filled with antics, wit, slapstick. It's one that I love from the 90's and recommend to anyone who appreciates a laugh.
