Description:
Too many kooks spoil the comedy soup? Not when BARBRA STREISAND and RYAN O'NEAL lead a madcap cast (including screen-debuting MADELINE KAHN) on a zany quest that's like a classic screwball comedy - only screwier!
Amazon.com essential video:
Director Peter Bogdanovich (The Last Picture Show) tipped his hat to the classic screwball comedies of the 1930s, and especially the most glorious of them all, Howard Hawks' Bringing Up Baby. Barbra Streisand plays a charming flake who distracts a self-absorbed musicologist (Ryan O'Neal). He's engaged to be married, but soon Streisand's character has him chasing after stolen jewelry and getting into one madcap fix after another. Bogdanovich, who is also a film critic, understands the engine of the screwball genre, and his loving revival of the form brings a smile, though it is not quite consistently inspired or funny. There are plenty of great moments, however, including a slap at O'Neal's own star-making vehicle, Love Story. --Tom Keogh

There is clearly a market for this type of screwball comedy it just doesn't do anything for me. Nothing is supposed to be believable and I frankly thought that O'Neal was horrible. I do like that they address that ridicuous line from Love Story though. I'm usually a Barbra Streisand fan, but I feel this was totally beneath her. I'm sure this type of comedy appeals to other and really you're just going to have a take a chance and see if this tickles your fancy. I still love Barbra.

Great older movie. Madelaine Kahn is fabulous. Constant funny situations and chase scenes.

This movie is fantastic and if you are soured on all the unnecessary violence and sex in many Hollywood films, this older movie will cheer you up. It is delightfully silly and full of wonderful lines.

This priceless movie with all its gags, bits and skillfully timed stunts and visuals is absolutely hilarious!!
Coupling the extremely funny and beautiful, Madeline Kahn with Ryan O'Neal, the geeky, handsome, straight man was "pure genius" and then there's Barbra Streisand and her character ...Superb, charming, beautiful, and devilishly impulsive!
I laugh just thinking about this union of character's... perfect!!!

I first saw this movie when I was a kid. But now that it is available on DVD, watching it again after 30 years sure brings back memories of the way comedies were done in the early 70s. Striesand was at her usual self, a good role for her and she went on to do better in THE MAIN EVENT pairing up again with O' Neal. Just wondering how the two felt about each other when they were cast again in opposite roles...But the climax in What's Up Doc is the judge in the court turns up to be Streisand's father. ...
