- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Smashingly funny...This To Be or Not to Be scarcely misses a comic beat right from the opening sequence"
-
"Very funny stuff"
-
"A mild farce - benign but not really very funny."
-
"Though Brooks is tasteless as usual in 'To Be Or Not To Be', his remake of Ernest Lubitsch's 1942 comedy of the same name may be his best work since his debut film, 'The Producers.'"
