Review of Where’s Poppa? (1970) by David B — 11 Apr 2008
So this was on a double-bill w/ ANNIE HALL (which I watched first & maybe that effected my opinion, but probably not). I had seen this back in high school (?) & remembered it being hysterical. It wasn't.
It's intended to be shocking & some of it kinda is, but my problem w/ it was that it just wasn't funny. I guess if you find George Siegel's mugging hysterical, you'll love it. (To clarify: by mugging, I mean facially, cuz there are also monetary muggings which take place in Central Park that are supposed to be funny, too).
I actually left about halfway (which I rarely do). I was bored.
