Summary: 5 Stars
If you're a fan of detective spoofs and whodunit mysteries, Murder By Death is a must-see as the film that inspired the private-eye parodies that followed it. Filled with slapstick, double entendre, dry witticisms, and sight gags, this movie has something for everyone, especially those who can appreciate all of the above. It features an all-star cast, including Peter Sellers (The Pink Panther), Maggie Smith (Harry Potter), and a hilarious Peter Falk (Columbo). DVD Review: Murder by Death - DVD

DVD Review: Great comedy from before foul language
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie has always been a favorite of mine. I originally saw it when it came out, and remember all the crazy stuff that went on. Later it became a thing where we would rent it every so often and watch it, waiting for certain parts. It draws on a great cast, a strange script, and sets that fit the storys mood. Its a film that would never be made today because they would never bring in so many great actors, and hire a top notch screenplay writer. Its easier now to just get one known actor, or a script that relies on foul language and gross jokes with whoever starring in it. I enjoy that type of movie too, but this is not like that. This is a fun movie, thats the best way to describe it.
Description of Murder by Death
Neil Simon wrote this 1976 spoof in which virtually every famous fictional detective of the 1930s and 1940s congregate at the home of a mysterious fellow (Truman Capote) to try and solve the mystery of who's trying to kill them all. Simon's jokes are mostly obvious, and the film's real appeal is the clever concept matched with fine--sometimes legendary--actors. Peter Falk plays a very Bogart-like Sam Spade equivalent, James Coco is a Hercule Poirot wannabe, Peter Sellers does a Charlie Chan bit, David Niven and Maggie Smith are reflections of Nick and Nora.... You get the picture. Lighthearted and silly, this is cotton-candy comedy for the cast as well as viewers. --Tom KeoghGeneral DVDs
