| User ReviewHans J. EChaplin as a dentist associate. It's a mess :) |
| User ReviewMark SThis is so slapstick it was quite hard to follow what was actually going on, but the gist is Charlie works as a dentist's assistant but decides to try his hand at the job proper, with chaos ensuing. It's silly without being funny. |
| User ReviewJohn AThis is about standard for Charlie's keystone comedies, with plenty of fights, brick-throwing, and mallets to go around. The set-up is really nothing more than an excuse to fight, but at least Charlie is occasionally funny or likable in this one. |
| User ReviewRyan GSeems like it should've been funnier. |
