Great Jerry Lewis Movie

Cute little comedy that I like. Too bad for Suzanne Pleshette, but Jerry stick to love has no boarder motto.This and Marlon Brando's "Sayonara" surprises me in the friendly attitude the producers has towards the Japanese just 11 years after WWII. Also, the depiction of the Japanese culture is pretty accurate, although it's clear that the movie is not shot in Japan.This movie was made 2 years after Jerry broke up with Dean, and he shows that he can well hold it on his own.Shot beautifully, probably in Los Angeles, and few footage from Japan, this movie wouldn't bore you.This is one of the Jerry Lewis movie that I like.

It was exciting to a child

This movie came to debut when I was ten. It was the rabbit that made me want to go and see it several times. I find this one of Jerry Lewis' better movies, minus Dean Martin. While most of his movies are just stupid, this one had some heart and soul. It is a great movie for children and if it were made to day could only be improved with maybe some special effects. Baseball fans will love it for the scene involving the Los Angeles Dodgers who had just come west from Brooklyn.

Just not at all embarrassing or racist, like you might fear.

A sentimental Jerry Lewis comedy about a down and out magician who takes a job entertaining the troops in Japan and meets a young mother and her son who hasn't laughed since his father died.So I've had this one here for years and avoided it because of the title. Even for a Jerry Lewis movie it sounded too dumb or offensive. While it didn't have the genius routines of The Bellboy, but it was entertaining, funny in a few places, but most surprisingly it was likable. Jerry was likable, the supporting cast were likable, and I had a good time. 3/5
