Roberta Findlay's anything goes (including the kitchen sink) approach to comedy works best within the sort of free form narrative she employed on fornication farces like SLIP UP or SWEET, SWEET FREEDOM a/k/a HOT NURSES. On such occasions she achieves an almost anarchist brand of movie-making madness where pretty much anything can occur at any given moment as long as it gets a laugh, even if it is one of disbelief. H.C. Potter's comparatively sane film version of Nat Perrin's famously lunatic stage play HELLZAPOPPIN' seems to have been of great influence on her style.
Tied down by the demands of spoofing an already existing popular source, in this case Mel Brooks' magnificent 1968 comedy classic THE PRODUCERS, Findlay's clearly out of her league however. Though departing from a solid screenplay she co-authored with R. Allen Leider (who would subsequently pen GLITTER and the straight horror offering THE ORACLE for her), the movie wavers wildly between effective and embarrassing, directed so broadly as to have scene punchlines virtually disappear amid the loud kvetching of a cast largely left to its own devices. Fortunately, several of these performers (Bobby Astyr, Robert Kerman, Ron Jeremy, Veronica Hart & Samantha Fox) have a theater background they can fall back on, rendering their shtick more palatable than that of their noticeably floundering colleagues.
