4.0 out of 5 stars One of the funniest films I've seen., 24 April 2004
By Filmically Challenged "madloverci" (Dundee, Tayside, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I first saw this film over 10 years ago and thought it was hilarious. Ithen saw a stage production, and it had lost none of the humour. When Isaw it had (finally!!) been released on DVD I had to get itimmediately.
In a nutshell, it's about people putting on a play which they hope toeventually take to Broadway, and it's about how BAD they all are, thebackstabbing, and the romance. This is the kind of film where you can'ttake your eyes off the screen for a second, or you'll miss somethingvitally important (who does what to whom, who is in love with who...) Although I'm not a big fan of slapstick, this has made me laugh out loudon many occasions.
The first act is a little slow, but it sets the groundwork for many of thegags that come later on - the sardines, the phone, the boxes and thebags... not to mention the glue and the Arab sheikh. Some of the acting(when they're playing the actors, not when they're playing the actorsplaying the parts) is a little hammy, and Nicolette Sheridan isn't quiteas dizzy a blonde as she should be, but you won't be disappointed withthis.
I got it 2 days ago and I've just watched it for the 2nd time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Applause! Applause!!, 23 April 2007
By F. S. L'hoir (Irvine, CA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Although I enjoyed it immensely the first time, this hysterical showbiz farce, gets funnier with each viewing. It is also a good idea to watch it at least once with the subtitles on, since the dialogue is extremely fast paced. The the ensemble cast is delightful. Michael Caine plays the two-timing director with his usual perfection, and Carol Burnett plays the temperamental leading lady with her usual panache. Both John Ritter and Christopher Reeve are very funny, the former as the neurotic leading man and the latter as a dim-witted method actor who has to have his off-stage beat for removing a box of groceries explained to him. Marylu Henner and Nicolette Sheridan are convincing in their supporting roles, as is Denholm Elliott, a has-been actor who hides bottles of whisky in convenient cubby-holes backstage. I especially enjoyed Mark Linn Baker who plays the beleaguered stage manager.

Peter Bogdonovich's direction as well as his actors' split-second timing makes this farce a real treat. Doors open and close, plates of sardines get passed back and forth, props get mislaid, yet everything goes exactly right--until it goes awfully wrong.

And therein lies the fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sardines....Sardines !!!!, 27 Sep 2004
Very few stage success` make a smooth transition to the big screen. But "Noises Off" excels. With a cast of mouth watering talent, Michael Caine, Carol Burnett and Christopher Reeve to name but a few. Indeed if you know the stage version, the film will not dissappoint and will have you laughing from beginning to end. Ok here`s the basic plot. A group of actors put on a play, and as opening night draws near they are still not ready what with contact lenses, flowers and sardines all adding to the confussion. Tensions rise and trousers drop and things go from bad to worse, but there is a happy ending.....or is there ? One of my favourite films, give it go I`m sure you`ll love too.
