Young Frankenstein
History of the World: Part I

An uproarious version of history that proves nothing is sacred – not even the Roman Empire, the French Revolution and the Spanish Inquisition.

A town—where everyone seems to be named Johnson—stands in the way of the railroad. In order to grab their land, robber baron Hedley Lemar sends his henchmen to make life in the town unbearable.

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

fresh:
Some of the gags don't work, but fewer than in any previous Brooks film that I've seen, and when the jokes are meant to be bad, they are riotously poor. What more can one ask of Mel Brooks?
– Vincent Canby,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
It shows artistic growth and a more sure-handed control of the material by a director who once seemed willing to do literally anything for a laugh. It's more confident and less breathless.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
23 Oct 2004
fresh:
For a really delightful parody, James Whale's own Bride of Frankenstein is far better value.
– Geoff Andrew,

fresh:
More about the myth of Karloff than the monster, this Mel Brooks pastiche is probably his best early film.
– Don Druker,
Chicago Reader,

fresh:
Wilder's hysteria seems perfectly natural. You never question what's driving him to it; his fits are lucid and total. They take him into a different dimension -- he delivers what Harpo promised.
