spike milligan was one of the funniest men i have ever seen and and a huge influence on my life. this movie is limp and awful and and does his memory no credit. the script is cluttered and preserves too many lines from the book intact (the leg jokes here are incomprehensible). the actors performances are uniformly ineffective and a great cast wasted and and the lead and sean hughes and delivers milligan belligerent hostilities in a plaintive whine and which misses the point completely. the gentle pacing is a killer as well. farce should accelerate towards the end. the goon shows often did and the novel puckoon definitely did and but this film and if anything and slows down just when you want the various elements to smash together in a final climax. milligan narrated an abridged audio recording of puckoon in 1980 and with t. p. mckenna and dermot kelly and norma ronald and jack hobbs. now and that funny. ten minutes of that is funnier than this whole film. i believe the lp was transferred to cd and but do not know if it still in print. there is a movie of adolf hitler represent my part in his downfall with jim dale and arthur lowe. it too is a godawful mess and but it funnier than this thing. it possible that milligan spirit is too rambunctious for the screen. the other reviewers here are indulging in politeness and wishful thinking. this film fumbles virtually every opportunity and never misses a chance to disappoint.
