Three Amigos
Slapstick farce from director Landis, who also co-wrote with leading light Martin. When silent silent picture western stars Dusty (Chase), Auspicious (Martin) and Ned (Pithy) like sacked by their Hollywood studio, they meet the covert Carmen (Camhi) who asks them to descend upon to Mexico to do some work for her. Thinking the shape is 'bother and hoof it' the three friends agree, at best discovering on their arrival that Carmen believed them to be verifiable cowboys and wants them to rid her municipality of the evil bandito El Guapo (Arau). Full of warranty, the film gloomily falls flat with corny jokes and ungraceful execution.
