Reviews for Skidoo
It's worth seeing just for the sheer jaw-dropping amazement of it all.
Great sums of money were lavished on this dull attempt at humor that failed on almost every level.
Skidoo patronises young and old alike, which is pretty much like cutting off both legs before a track meet.
Preminger seems unable to invest his film with any lightness or spontaneity.
The movie, which has the form of comedy, is 98 minutes of disconnected story-conference ideas.
