this film isn't bad but it frankly isn't great, either. i submit that those seeking a film experience featuring Jack Benny's radio character would be better served by BUCK BENNY RIDES AGAIN.
really REALLY wanted to like it, being a lifelong fan of FIBBER McGEE & MOLLY...but the magic just ain't there!!! (To remake a classic is always asking to fall flat on one's ass, I'm afraid.)
are you SURE that's Peter O'Toole? that monotone sounds more like Al Gore or somebody.
