This film was presented by Rank once dedicated to family films.No X certificates or suggestive fare.He must have been turning in his grave.
This has to be one of the worst sex farces of the seventies.It really deserves 0/10
Gifted celluloid smut slinger Jim Clark's riotously ribald 'Rentadick' (1972) is a robustly risqué, rump-rockingly rumbustious, bra-bustingly boorish, luridly low-brow, hysterically fly-blown comedy from Brit-sinema's lustiest spray day! Give sulky sadness the shaft!!! As the bawdily backward 'Rentadick' rudely upturns your frumpy frown into a syndicated smirk!! 'Rentadick' rigidly grasps your flaccid giggle gland wiv both 'ahnds and gives it a proper good Tommy Tank! So if you feel all at Bell's End, think you've about bottomed out, fear the lusty lead's bled right out of ya' pencil, then don't despair, slinkily slip out of your plushly velvet Lionel Blair's, generously pour yourself a titanic tot of your most spirited spirit, and take a not-so sneaky peak at comely crumpet Julie Ege's permissively perky, lead-firming peaks!!!! And if luxuriously lewd 70s comedy be your hot cup of steaming meat, then this fleshly fecund film might just prove to be a terrifically tumescent, lingerie lifting, late night treat! Remember, it 'aint a crime to covet a bodacious behind!!! And it's not, as yet, against the law to sensuously stretch your jocular jaw over a prickly pawpaw! Made when PC happily stood for Perfectly Crude, Jim Clark's sinfully penetrating comedy 'Rentadick' is slickly ad-libbed for your illicit, rib tickling pleasure!
We have watched this movie twice this week and my daughter and I both think it is very funny. Ronald Fraser could not be funnier. If you didn't like this movie, try it again. Rentadick should be considered a cult classic.
How one film can so woefully underuse such a great line up of actors and actresses beggars belief. A lame script laces poor and very unfunny jokes.
An all round pathetic film.

This abomination, which was written by John Cleese and friends, represents the very low point of English film making. Leaving aside the excesses of the 1970's, this is a racist, sexist, and very unfunny movie with so little plot it is amazing.
Re-arrange your sock drawer instead. The time would be better spent.

- TriviaThe original script, titled "Rentasleuth", was written by John Cleese and Graham Chapman. However, the pair left the project and, having seen the finished film, asked for their names to be removed. The film therefore has an "additional material by" credit, but no main screenplay credit.
