Comments

The second film of Carry on ... series lays the foundation for what is to follow. The performers are assigned to slow fixed roles they vary in the following movies often. Many of the stars and minor celebrities are seen here already. Now and then even flashes a bit of anarchist humor, which will award the series in its classical phase. Ultimately, however, the film is still a fairly betuliches comedy with no real highlights, in part somewhat immature in his figure drawing. Director Gerald Thomas follows for the first time his successful brother Ralph Thomas ( Doctor film series) into the genre of medicine movies that should be parodied in this series two more times ( The totally crazy Hospital and The totally crazy madhouse )

Reviews

" The men's ward of a British hospital jolly as the backdrop for a series of naive situation grotesque. There occur: a kußfreudiger reporter; a general with Spleen; a high stack Direction construction workers; a nervous children Reicher; a frightened boxer; an embarrassing feminine music lover; a blase intellectuals idiot etc. Either scurrying Messrs. naked and giggling through the gears to dress up as sisters who use toilet paper as streamers or try after champagne pleasure to amputate a foot in the operating room her station comrades.
