Load of rubbish!!

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

While I'm not a fan of Pierre Elliot Trudeau's ex-girlfriend, there's no question Barbra Streisand is a superlative talent as an actress, singer and composer. She has more talent in her pinkie finger than Jennifer Lawrence has in her whole body. She owns What's Up Doc? fully and delivers a tour-de-force performance. Streisand sings, acts, showcases her comedic chops and even sizzles with her understated sensuousness throughout the zany proceedings.Peter Bogdanovich's delicious take-off of the classic screwball comedies of yesteryear is spiced up with references to iconic Bugs Bunny cartoons. Bab's Judy Maxwell is a wisecracking, confident go- getter who is attracted to mousy scientist-musician Howard Bannister (Ryan O'Neal), who has come to San Francisco with his frigid fiancée Eunice (the late great Madeline Kahn in her film debut) to compete for a grant.You also have a hilarious game of cat-and-mouse involving four exactly alike duffel bags being stolen and re-stolen by various shady characters (one of whom is future Boss Hogg Sorrell Booke) without them looking inside of them. These individuals and Maxwell reek havoc on the posh hotel in uproarious fashion.Eventually, these two story lines mesh in a crazy chase through the streets of San Francisco where the screwball also meshes with Bugs Bunny.I really enjoyed WUD. It actually is a funny film and the references to the classic film shorts are spliced in at the right time. Like so many other Warner Brothers films of the last Golden Age of Cinema, you will never see anything like this today. It's family-friendly but adults will find plenty to tickle their funny bone. In a day of fart jokes, blue humor and sexual tastelessness, there is always the classics to turn to and WUD is a fine film.If only there were more Judy Maxwells in Ottawa...

This was a very interesting movie because of what it was able to accomplish. Anyone who watches the first 30 seconds and has a functioning brain would be able to see exactly what the plot will be for the rest of the movie. It is so very predictable in the story that will happen. Nevertheless, that did not detract from it. Unlike many modern comedies that make jokes and almost wait for the audience to laugh or respond before moving on, this comedy made most of its jokes with its tongue in its cheek. They were subtle and almost under the breath of the characters, resulting in a hilarious movie. The best way to describe it would be a fantastic stand-up routine that was shooting jokes in rapid succession. Yes, the basic film elements were there, but this movie was so incredibly entertaining. What's Up Doc was able to capture the essence of something that so many comedies attempt to do now, but in an elevated manner. It didn't have to resort of fowl language or sexual content to get a laugh, but the wit of the writing and the strength of the acting. Hopefully one day we will be able to get another comedy on this level instead of the quiche junk that is made now.In conclusion, it was brilliant and I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys quick witted and dry humor.

Now this is one movie I wish I could have seen in the theater! Accompanied by popcorn and something to drink, what fun this would be! I have seen this on television and also on video.This is one film that takes superb actors who know their craft well and places them in the zaniest mix-ups but also assumes that the viewer has some intelligence. The main protagonist is a professor - a musicologist (basically a musical historian) - who meets up with someone who would be known as a "professional student" in today's vernacular. Mix-ups ensue, hotel rooms burn, and most importantly, look-alike overnight bags - 4 in all - in a loud plaid color - get mixed up. From secret government underwear to precious jewels, I tried to keep track of which bag was where the last time I watched this movie. I couldn't do it! I lost track about 30 minutes in.This is a funny movie that I recommend for families to watch. (One caution: If you don't want your little ones to see Barbara Streisand taking a bubble-bath or come out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a towel, then maybe select something else. Even so, this movie is G rated, believe it or not.)This is one of the great films of all time - just because it is fun, funny, and intelligent. I like to watch it if I need a good laugh.

One of the funniest comic romps to ever hit the silver screen. Ryan O'Neal is perfect as Howard Bannister; a bumbling musicologist who cannot seem to elude the precocious, disaster prone clutches of Barbara Streisand's Judy Maxwell.Streisand really sparkles here and is a riotous foil to O'Neal. Madeline Kahn, in her feature debut, is flat out hysterical as Howard's overbearing fiancée Eunice. This is a classic, screwball farce where four mixed up plaid bags are the ingredients to side-splitting mayhem.Director Peter Bogdanovich does an excellent job of serving up an array of perfectly timed comic set pieces which his troupe of seasoned character actors and stars deliver with lunatic aplomb. There are non- stop bits, one liners, a hilarious hotel hallway scene with slamming doors, zany slapstick fights and a comic crescendo which features the most masterful and madcap chase sequence up, over and around the hills, steps and streets of San Francisco.This is a tremendously funny film that will keep you giggling continuously whether it is your first viewing or your twenty-first.
