The Ladies Man

Jerry Lewis reminds me of Jim Carrey--I can admire at a remove the skillful physicality that he brings to the schtick. I thought Carrey was hilarious when I was in seventh grade; needless to say, I'm not in seventh grade anymore. One star for set design, and I hope there are no more Lewis movies on this list.

In The Ladies Man we meet Herbert. A guy that gets depressed when he sees the girl he likes with another guy. He start looking for a job. He is so heartbroken that he don't wanna know about girl for a long time but he ends up working in a house full of beautiful women. Unlike any men who would love to have that job Herbert starts to panic when he discovers that he will have to deal with a lot of women everyday. The main problem with this film is the non-existent material, by that I mean, theres a lot of funny moments but then it looks like there's really nothing special to tell besides that initial disappointment in Herbert's life leading him to find a job and work with those women. Jerry Lewis plays a good character, funny and awkward as always but there's nothing more than that. Jerry Lewis way of doing comedy is always very goofy and that's what makes him an unique comedian, there's no one like him and he will always make you laugh with the most stupid and absurd situations ever!
