Jerry Lewis' best film. That's like having a heirarchy of manure.

Jerry Lewis is one of those weird comedians for me where I like him personally but I'm not all that engaged by his lengthy archive of films. The exception is The Nutty Professor the cleverly takes the Jekyl and Hyde concept and easily transitions it into a more identifiable and ...read more

So hilarious. I hate dirty modern humor. But this movie was funny in a subtle, less crude way.

Old Jerry Lewis movies are freaking hilarious this one being no exception. Give it a try alot of these old classics get forgotten in the toss due to people thinking that they will be simply corny. Corny? yes but they have alot of laughs that make it all worth while. Give the upda... read more

Funny, but only unintentionally so. The soundtrack is agonizing to listen to. Boring cinderella story with a twist of morals, singing, and slapstick. In other words, Jerry Lewis.

An odd take on the Jekyll and Hyde classic story that will have you laughing at times. Keep in mind it is a '60s movie, and it should be quite entertaining.

If your life is going by too fast, rent this film - you'll think time has come to a stop! Nearly every scene seems to last forever. I can't believe we watched the whole thing, so beware - you'll either fall asleep like I did, or go so numb that you can't pick up the remote to tur... read more

a quite funny romp

Steve Crum, Kansas City Kansan

Certainly Jerry Lewis at his best.

October 19, 2004

Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid

It's a brilliant job of direction, but the film couldn't have worked without Lewis' performance in both roles. Full Review

October 14, 2004

Eric Henderson, Slant Magazine

Contains some of Lewis's most outré directorial flourishes. Full Review

April 3, 2004

Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews

Silly, manic, juvenile, square, unfunny in an offensive way and serving as an egomaniacal testament to Mr. Lewis.Full Review

Lori Hoffman, Atlantic City Weekly

Much better than the remake; Jerry Lewis' best movie.

July 31, 2003

Ken Hanke, Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

Supposedly Lewis' masterpiece. That says a lot about Lewis.

February 19, 2003

Kevin Fiddler, Henderson Home News (Henderson, NV)

Classic Jerry Lewis

August 22, 2002

Bob Bloom, Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)

Lewis' uneven take on Jekyll and Hyde has its fun moments, but at times its too sentimental and cloying.

July 29, 2002

James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette

"probably Lewis' masterpiece"
