REVIEW:
If you love classic Mel Brooks films like Blazing Saddles & Young Frankenstein, (No, Spaceballs is considered a cult favorite, not a classic) then Silent Movie follows up to all of Mel Brooks' original favorites. Silent Movie tells the "silent" story about a on and off director who must make a silent film to save a studio from another studio that wants to take over the 1st studio. This film is typical Mel Brooks comedy with his partners, the late Marty Feldman & Dom DeLUISE (R.I.P.) who were always funny with Brooks when they collaborated. It also continues being one of the golden parody movies, which in this case of course spoofs the silent film genre. With many jokes involving the genre being spoofed and all of the celebrity appearances from such actors & actresses like James Caan and Anne Bancroft, Silent Movie makes a great comedy for the older teens with no words at all. (Except for the word "NO!!") Anyway, if you love Mel Brooks or any kind of comedy form, then watch a Mel Brooks classic, Silent Movie.

Hello viewers of this blog,
Due to recent comments of spam and profanity present from obnoxious kids who think they are the funniest people in the world, I would like to request that the comments posted here are in good taste, meaning that they have no Anti-Semitic remarks, profanity, sexual innuendo, or any insults to myself. You can criticize the review and give pointers on how to make them better, but how about we be adults about this. Ok? Thank you, and have a nice day.
