Amazon.co.uk Review
See No Evil, Hear No Evil is a comedy thriller about disability that teeters perpetually on the brink of execrable taste, but more often ends up being bland. Brash blind Wally (Richard Pryor) and mild-mannered, cute deaf Dave (Gene Wilder) form a working partnership based partly on mutual regard and partly on desperation. A man is killed at the counter of their cigar store and neither of them can quite account for their actions or identify the killer, Eve (Joan Severance). They find themselves arrested and subsequently on the run. Eve and her henchman--a surprisingly sinister Kevin Spacey--pursue them remorselessly, searching for a gold coin that is more and less than it appears. Mild sexual chemistry between Wilder and the villainess is perhaps one of the few elements here not entirely watered down from late-period Hitchcock. Playing disability for slapstick is perhaps not the most enlightened way to increase sympathy for the disabled: this is a crass film whose good intentions are more than usually fragile.
On the DVD: the disc includes a rather smug featurette and filmographies of the two stars. --Roz Kaveney

I remember flicking through the channels to see what was on and my Auntie pointed out this film called See no evil Hear no evil, she said it was so funny that we just had to watch it. I wasnt to sure about it but said ok and from the first 10 minutes of the film I was in stiches I just couldnt stop laughing. The car chase scene with a blind man driving.... well you can imagine.
In three words "buy it now"
But be prepared to have a sore stomach from laughing so hard

I wish Pryor and Wilder would make more movies togther in the 90's! they were such a pair! ashame Pryor got ill and sadly died last year :(
If you like this, you must get Stir Crazy :) theres also Silver Streak which should have had pryor in it more and another you which is ok
anyway, you won't be disappointed, comics that know how it is done right! forget those silly teen films like american pie!! this is the real deal

This is a very old but hilarious film I bought for a friend who had never seen it. Very much 'visual comedy', you can't shut your eyes or you'll miss half the plot. Read more

I can speak no evil of it
Brilliant. Seen it before but still very, very funny. On the basis of this one must get Stir Crazy to see more of the genius and rapport of these two actors.

Amazing first 20 minutes makes it worth watching.
It never keeps up with a sensational start, but by then it doesnt matter as your already won over.
Such a great concept and idea for a film.
5 stars from me.
