Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding
Without a doubt this movie is outstanding. It is hilarious, entertaining and musical. The black and white adds to the greatness. I highly recommend this movie.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Eddie Cantor rules here and elsewhere
Why is Eddie Cantor so obscure? He certainly has the talent to rank as one of the greatest. It is almost as if he was black listed, or else crushed someones top hat. He deserves more exposure, DVD release please!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - MY FIRST CANTOR FILM...
This was my 1st Eddie Cantor movie. I found him one of the best comidieans I have ever seen, and he lights up this movie with a really funny and remarkable comedic energy. But as for the movie itself, it was pretty bland and the musical numbers were DUDS. Never very clever, they are pretty much just an excuse to showcase some girls and Eddie Cantor and Ruth Etting are the best things about them. I was movied by Ruth's singing of that song and thought she proved to be a great actress by that. I cried. But if you are looking some good, lavish, numbers then skip Roman Scandals. But it's a good comedy film. Pity that Cantor's only movie on DVD is Glorifying the American Girl, and he is no the star in that. Wish that Whoopee! will come to DVD because the tape is more than i want to spend.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "Scandals" Holds Up Well
I'd heard and read about this film since I was a kid in the 60's but never got the chance to see it until recently. I suggest you do the same! It's kinda like "A Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court", "Brigadoon" and "Wizard Of Oz" wrapped into one.
Cantor is a citizen of the American town, West Rome and suddenly finds himself transported to Ancient Rome. David Manners is a co-star and is much better in this film than in the Universal horror classics (like "Dracula") where he played a somewhat smarmy, prissy hero. He goes from bad guy, to good guy, to romantic guy, to action hero and I actually enjoyed him in this film. Gloria Stuart, who played "Old Rose" in 1997's TITANIC, plays Princess Sylvia, and is she ever a hotsy-totsy! Lucille Ball gets billing on the VHS back cover, but none in the film. She's basically just one of the many "Goldwyn Girls" featured. You can also catch a glimpse of Lucy's best ... Read More
