Wolff Movie Index

History of the World, part 1(1982(?))

Wolff rating: FAIR

Plot summary: A loose collection of gags on Western civilization.

Biased, pithy comments: Mel Brooks just can't beat ``Young Frankenstein''. Hines has fun being a Roman, but racial/ethnic humor only goes so far. The preview of part 2 can be considered the best part of the movie.

How many times I have seen it: x3

Starring: Mel Brooks, Gregory Hines
Directed by: Mel Brooks
