"The Producers" Review
The Professor gives it an
A
IMDB.com plot synopsis: The Producers tells the
story of a down on his luck producer (Lane) and his accountant (Broderick) and
their get rich quick plan.It's a Mel
Brooks production; how can it not be funny? He takes every cliche of the late
'50's/early '60's musical and lampoons it hilariously. This version is worth
seeing even if you liked the original movie, for its delightful raunchiness that
couldn't have been put on the screen back in 1968 (at least not as I remember
it) and for the addition of several hilarious musical
numbers.The casting is superb. Nathan
Lane is hilarious; and I've been a fan of Matthew Broderick's work for a long
time. He does not disappoint in this. Uma Thurman and Will Ferrell are very
good in their supporting roles as well.A
definite win for a side-splitting afternoon.
