Up the Creek

As has been mentioned by a previous reviewer,Val Guest,a co writer for Oh Mr Porter,has used some of the situations and lines from Oh Mr Porter in this film. The problem is that unlike Oh Mr Porter this film is not very funny. Furthermore David Tomlinson,who had high opinion of himself,which i do not share is no match for Will Hay. Peter Sellers gives a rather bland and disappointing performance particularly when compared with his performance in The Naked Truth. There are a lot of reliable character actors on hand to give him support such as Lionel jeffries,Sam kydd,Wilfred Hyde White. For some reason,probably economy,a completely unkown continental actress was chosen for the female lead. Mediocre at best.
