The Comic Strip meets Rider Haggard meets (to a lesser extent) Monty Python.
The movie has the same cheesiness (and level of excuses for Jane to lose her clothes) as the long-gone 'Daily Mirror' cartoon strip with a similar level of improbability as many similar strips and of the Saturday Morning serials of the same period.
Don't expect serious dialogue or anything less than real ham acting - but that is not because the cast are poor actors (just look at their credits on IMDB), it truly is deliberate. And there are enough fun references to make you pay attention - I am only surprised that Toombs wasn't playing "As Time Goes By" when he is on the piano.
Witty, silly, humorous and GREAT FUN. Thoroughly loved it as a piece of pure entertainment.
