One of the funniest movies from my childhood.
July 26, 2002
Far from Brooks' best work, but it's the one that makes me laugh the most.

Brooks' tribute to silent cinema has its drawbacks, but his obvious affection for pre-talkies saves the day.
September 04, 2006
While Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein stride across the land with seven-league boots, Silent Movie glides on tip-toe like Bugs Bunny in ballet slippers.

Mel Brooks was THE comic master of the 70's
March 30, 2006
Mel Brooks has never known when a joke is worthy of a five-minute bit and when it's something you can flesh out into a full length feature.

Silly strained comedy.
August 21, 2003
Nearly everything is done in that special Mel Brooks brand of broad comedy that quickly palls for all but the faithful.
April 20, 2007
Not Brooks' best, but still funny
September 22, 2005
Low end of Mel Brooks' films.

What disconcerts me about Mr Brooks is his obviousness, the lack of any true surprise in his gags.
