Good combination of comedy and heart
by trixster (movies profile)
Oct 12, 2007
It's a great combination of comedy and heart, even if it's a bit light on both. It also ends way too quickly, it seems like the girl just gets roped into a happy ending that she didn't want. Seems a bit presumptuous. Chaplin is terrific, though, and there are some great comic set pieces, as well as the too-cute bread roll dance, and it did make me feel for the Tramp, but the happy ending is too happy, if that's an appropriate reason to dislike something. I'll have to check out Chaplin's other work now. |
