Minor Keaton but major almost any other comedian.

Tom Milne, Time Out
Rotten

Keaton himself strives to be funny, but his actions are so frightfully absurd that it strikes one that the character he plays never ought to be out of an asylum.

Mordaunt Hall, New York Times
Fresh

Buster on the playing field, failing gloriously at every sport but executing each one beautifully when he dashes to his girl's rescue, is a study in precision and grace.

Don Druker, Chicago Reader
