1969 - Take the Money and Run

· 100 words


I'm watching all of Woody Allen's films in chronological order.

Take The Money And Run has a promising start. A faux documentary with some excellent gags. But it leaps around the story with no real regard for the viewer.

It's possibly the first "mockumentary" and, as such, is a trail-blazing piece. But as with his earlier films the gags are few and far between. Once the jokes hit, they're often substandard and fall flat.

You can buy Take The Money And Run from Amazon.
