Ik ben dol op Gene Wilder en Richard Pryor. Silver Streak was geweldig. _Hear No Evil See No Evil_ was niet slecht. Ik snap alleen niet waarom deze film zo in de belangstelling staat. Er wordt hier en daar wat gegrinnikt, maar al met al vond ik hem niet zo grappig. Het grappigste was Gene Wilder's geslepenheid in de omgang met de bruutheid van de bewakers. Richard Pryors lucifer bij de grote kerel in de gevangenis was ook grappig, al sloeg het nergens op. Ik heb zowel de tv- als de dvd-versie van deze film gezien en geen van beide kon me overtuigen van de reden waarom deze film als 'klassiek' wordt beschouwd. Beide acteurs hebben leukere films gehad (samen of alleen).
I love Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor. Silver Streak was great. Hear No Evil See No Evil wasn't bad. I just don't get why this movie is so highly thought of. It has a few chuckles here and there, but all in all I didn't find it that funny. The funniest moments were Gene Wilder's craftiness in dealing with the guards brutality. Richard Pryor's striking a match to the big guy in jail was funny too, although it didn't make much sense. I have seen both the TV and DVD version of this film and neither were able to impress on me the reason this movie is considered to be a "classic". Both actors have had funnier films (together and on their own).
