 A 100% Mistaken Identity Movie October 28, 2008
Thomas Bangash (Manhattan, New York City, USA)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
i first saw this movie some 12 years ago on the TV, and Loved it ever since. this is one of the movies that I had recorded from the TV, then Bought it on VHS when I found it ... and the recently, after long term searching Acquired it on DVD (as VHS seiged to exist).
i don't really care much for the Critics and their grading of the movie. cuz when I look it up in any of the Movie Encyclopedias that's available, the review of the movie is not that great. but I have the right to disagree... admittedly, it may not fall in everybody's taste... but I can't stop laughing whenever I put it on.
The story or plot is as said ... One Big Mess of Mistaken Identity, 3 people comes to venice each with their own agenda, but due to a LINGUAL Barrier, they all get mistaken for one another and each of them, Unknowingly, gets the task that was suppose to belong to one of the others. And from there on ... till last minute ... one big mess.
This is not a movie which needs much thinking or anything... it is 90 so minutes of pure entertainment.
Dudley Moore, ... what can I say ... one heck of a performer. not in the same calibre as in Authur... but his performance is great... as always. I don't really think he as much as smiles anywhere in the entire movie, but He'll have you laughing non stop through out.
 Terrific farce May 1, 2008
D. R. M. (Minneapolis, MN United States)

This movie did poorly at the box office when it came out, and I could never figure out why. It's a splendid black farce of mistaken identity that never lets up; a kind of hybrid of French sex farce (think Feydeau) and British gangster comedy (think early Alec Guinness comedies). And it's a terrific sort of valedictory for the late, great Mr. Moore. If you love a good farce, you've got to see this flick.
Funny movie! March 28, 2007

One of the best movies ever! This movie is worth every penny. It is an underappreciated classic.
One of the last few family comedies by a late great actor March 14, 2005

Dudley Moore was diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy, which is a form of Parksinson's disease, at the age of 62. That's what killed him, and that's why he stopped doing movies. Having said that, I thoroughly enjoyed Blame it on the Bellboy.
It was good to see a much older Moore still getting good acting roles. Of course, he could never do better than his role of Arhur Bach in Arthur and Arthur 2, on the Rocks!
Blame it on the Bellboy is a case of mistaken identity. It's a cast of wildly unusual characters,like Moore, who plays a timid American salesman, trying to save his job by purchasing an Italian villa for his boss, who we only meet over the phone but grow to loath.
There's only place in the movie you might want to cover your child's eyes, otherwise, its great for the whole family!
Dudley's last film and dud! March 11, 2005
andy8047 (Nokomis,Florida)
3 out of 8 found this review helpful
Here in the late Dudley Moore's last film,he's a guest in a Paris hotel. Giving Moore moral support is Bryan Brown,also a guest. Hollywood dropped Moore after this film and he subsequently had a few short television stints such as "Dudley" and "Daddy's Girls". Moore passed away at age 66 of complications from diabetes on March 9,2002. Moore's previous duds include 1980's WHOLLY MOSES,1982's SIX WEEKS and 1983's LOVESICK.
