Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 7 times the Jerry = 7 times the laughs!
Review: 18 years after the making of this gem, he would star with Robert DeNiro as the King of Comedy. Well, this is the King at his finest. Each character is exquisite, though I must admit that Uncle Bugsy is my favorite. The scene where he makes Donna (his adorable young niece) recite an arithmatic problem is classic old school comedy, and classic Lewis. While such classics as "The Nutty Professor", "The Disorderly Orderly" and "Cinderfella" made him a comedy icon, this charming and hilariously funny film is certain to find a place your heart. Superb family entertainment.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Delicious!
Review: Jerry is an "acquired taste," which I fortunately acquired at a young age! Clean humor is so hard to find anymore, and Jerry's versatility continues to astonish me. This movie showcases that perfectly.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not Funny Stupid
Review: Jerry Lewis has never seemed very funny too me, he always just seems to want to act dumb. This movie is no exception.

The Story sounds rather interesting, but in reality it isn't exactly elaborated enough. The Story is about a little girl called Donna who is a recently orphaned rich heiress, who has to decide which of her seven uncles to live with. So she is suppoesd to spend 2 weeks with each one, but actually most of the time you only get to see one scene with one uncle. There is really not much elaboration on the uncles, just one little scene. And ALL of them are played by Jerry Lewis.

What Torture, no this movie isn't funny it is just plain dumb. Don't get it! If you want something funny get an 'I love Lucy' or some other comedy. Cause this is not real comedy
