The Producers

Broadway producer, Max Bialystock and his accountant, Leo Bloom plan to make money by charming little old ladies to invest in a production many times over what it will actually cost, and then put on a sure-fire flop, so nobody will ask for their money back – and what can be a more certain flop than a tasteless musical celebrating Hitler.

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Blazing Saddles has no dominant personality, and it looks as if it includes every gag thought up in every story conference. Whether good, bad, or mild, nothing was thrown out.

fresh:
It's a crazed grabbag of a movie that does everything to keep us laughing except hit us over the head with a rubber chicken.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
23 Oct 2004
fresh:
Although Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder head a uniformly competent cast, pic is handily stolen by Harvey Korman and Madeline Kahn. Kahn is simply terrific doing a Marlene Dietrich lampoon.

One of the funniest awful movies ever made.
