| User ReviewAshley HThe Cuckoos is a decent film. It is about two phony fortune tellers get mixed up with gypsies. Bert Wheeler and Robert Woosley give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Paul Sloane did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the humor. |
