If you enjoy off the wall humor, and have a fondness for 60's nostalgia, you will like this movie (in my opinion). I found the film to be good-natured, a bit silly in spots, and touched with a slightly warped sense of humor that held my attention for the relatively short run-time. I just wish that Cher had a larger role in this one, but, I guess (at the time), Sonny was considered the real "talent." Granted, Sonny can't sing very well (especially so when compared to Cher), however, he seems to be having a "good time" making the movies within the movie. The Western spoof is especially entertaining.This is a guilty pleasure movie. It amused me, made me smile a few times, and that is enough for me to recommend it!

This flick is only viewable by those that have a huge amount of pot, and even then, it's a tough go. For guys, there is some redeeming value at being able to see Cher before she had her face screwed up by a doctor. And she DOES have a nice singing voice.The late 60's were a strange time for movies, and this is a really good example. Far out, groovy, and bitchin' don't quite describe it. Jaw-dropping in its silliness, apparently nobody had any shame in 1967 Hollywood.And Sonny, with that shaggy Beatles hair! Gosh, we were odd back then.Best avoided if ANYTHING else is on.

The best parts of this movie are Cher singing, Cher berating future U.S. Congressman Sonny ("Why don't you take off that hat...you look like an idiot."), and Cher in a jungle suit lying on a tree (Great Gams, Sonnyman!).This movie is about Sonny and Cher making a movie. The script is awful -- both of them. And the "satirical" situations are ridiculous. Watch this, if you must, as a period piece of the freewheeling '60s. (Was the scriptwriter on LSD?) If you like stupid humor, then this movie's for you. Otherwise, this is a movie you can "watch" from another room with your ears.I recommend that you fast forward through all the dialog scenes and watch only the musical numbers, which are quite good (and the reason I bumped my rating up a point). Or buy the soundtrack, if you can find it, and listen to that while you do housework or something else productive.

This is the starring debut for Sonny and Cher (their screen debut being WILD ON THE BEACH). It is a hodge-podge of Sonny's fantasies of a movie-star career and Cher's not wanting to have any part of it (a carry-over from real life... ironic, huh?) It has one of their best songs DON'T TALK TO STRANGERS, and Sonny's comedy timing is surprisingly good. They could have done a lot better with a real script, I feel, but it WAS 1967...
