User Review - 10/10 by Sanity Assassin !Really funny. Peter Sellers is a genius again, switching between French and Cockney accents so easily. The story line is simple but original
User Review - 8/10 by Zach LPure enjoyment, with more well-known British 1960's comedy actors than you can shake a truncheon at.
User Review - 8/10 by Robert RAntoher Gem, very simular to Two Way Stretch
User Review - 8/10 by Stephen CThis film gets its marks for being good fun, with a cast of great British actors.
User Review - 8/10 by Jason MAn excellent film with a great cast inclusing Peter Sellars and Lionel Jeffries. Its all about the police and the criminal gangs getting together to stop some Australian criminals, the IPO mob, who are making life hard for both of them. How do they get away with it for so long, well IPO stands for impersonating a police officer...
User Review - 6/10 by pete 1Written by Ray Galton and Alan Simpson and John Antrobus and directed by Cliff Owen, this is an amusing yet harmless little farce with a very good British cast, and would help put it's star on the road to a brief but interesting shot at the big time, alot of people said 1963 and 64 were important years in Peter Sellers' life, this is one of those films that came out. It's a comedy crime caper where a bunch of Australian criminals, led by Jack Coombes (Bill Kerr), impersonate policemen to carry out crimes. Local gang leader "Pearly" Gates (Sellers), blames his local rival "Nervous" O'Toole (Bernard Cribbins). They eventually team up to bring down the Australian, but in order to do this, they need to co-operate with the real police, led by Police Inspector "Nosey" Parker (Lionel Jeffries). They come up with an elaborate plan to put a stop to this mob. However, it would appear that Gates has a secret agenda all of his own. It's enjoyable and has good performances. Even if Sellers plays a crook, he plays the part with relish. It has a good supporting cast, and has some good set pieces as each gang try to outwit one another.
User Review - 6/10 by Paul DRemeber a time when the police and criminals respected each other, well this is it. It is easy to assume this British comedy of the 60's would be a farce, but it is head and tails above the Ealing studio comedies that were so prevalent at this time, meaning it really is funny.
