Rightly regarded as one of the peaks of Kaye's career.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 16, 2013

Costumed swashbucklers undergo a happy spoofing in The Court Jester with Danny Kaye heading the fun-poking.

In The Court Jester, Funnyman Kaye takes all the laughs he needs, but he takes them when they do not stop the show.

A cracking jest, wonderfully enjoyable.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 28, 2011

Some accomplished slapstick, but nothing special.

Terrific family fun.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Dec 28, 2010

Whether it's really watchable depends on what you feel about the charmless Kaye, whose vehicle this is from start to finish.

It's good fun.

See Errol Flynn in Robin Hood — and then see Kaye in Court Jester. The former is the ultimate swashbuckler; the latter the ultimate swashbuckler spoof.
