The Private Eyes

Summary: Can't Help But Laugh
Review: Buy this flick. You probably saw it on cable 20 years ago, or maybe some goof at the office told you about it. Here's why it's worth owning.

Somewhere along the way Hollywood decided films like 'The Private Eyes' weren't suitable for production. Not being a student of film or pop culture, I'm not really sure why. It probably cost next-to-nothing to make, is thoroughly enjoyable, and is suited for virtually any audience -- one could watch this with grandma or their drinking buddies.

Regardless, the world has changed, so thankfully we have little gems like this to remind us of how things ought to be. So while my buddies can rave about crap like the 'Matrix Returns,' I'll settle down and watch Conway and Knotts bungle their way through 90 minutes of side-splitting joy. Call me corny, but gags like the time pistol, which goes off every hour, or the never-ending supply of homing pigeons (gone awry) are priceless.

Sure, guys like Chris Tucker are funny, but I just can't see them pulling off any bit that doesn't involve dope, profanity, and/or both. That's not a knock on today's comedy, but anyone who's a fan of the art will get a kick out of 'the Private Eyes.'

Summary: Even teens will laugh at this one!
Review: Tim Conway and Don Knots are quite a duo in this hilarious mystery. You never quite know "who done it" and you never can be sure about what the next rhyme won't be... However, everyone in the family can enjoy this movie. My husband and I first enjoyed this movie while dating back in the early 80's... we never forgot about it and this past year I purchased for a Christmas surprise!

We have all enjoyed this movie and continue to enjoy it, in fact it is a favorite with both of my teenage daughters and they love to bring it out whenever they have friends "hang out".

Order it today and ENJOY!
