Color me unimpressed with The Producers. And I'm talking about the original Mel Brooks film, not the newer film-of-a-musical-of-a-film version.
There were some good moments, and Gene Wilder's performance was bloody brilliant, like he was channeling Woody Allen or something, but overall a somewhat "meh" comedy. I laughed much harder at the two Deanna Durbin films I had last week (which were, incidentally, It started with Eve and Can't help singing)
