"What's Up, Doc?" joyously recaptures the bubbly style of 1930s screwball comedies - and firmly establishes Barbra Streisand and Ryan O'Neal as a romantic duo uniquely endearing in screen history. Included are a daffy luggage mixup plot, dippy dialogue exchanges, a marvelous example of the art of hotel-room demolition and one of the funniest chase sequences ever, all over San Francisco. Dexterously written with a surefooted sense of the ridiculous by Buck Henry, David Newman and Robert Benton, directed by Peter Bogdanovich with giddy affection and cast with awesomely hilarious players (including film-debuting Madeline Kahn), 'What's Up, Doc?' is no idle question. Among comedy movies, it's the top.
Synopsis: Skillfully directed, madcap jewel heist caper film was a hit in its day. Star-studded, lighthearted film should still entertain fans of well-paced screwball comedies. A can't-miss for Streisand buffs.
