Mother, Jugs and Speed is one of those premises that must have sounded great when the agents were explaining it to the studio, but it comes out as an unhappy cross between MASH and As the World Turns.

The gags get dull, and the mood turns ugly.

If you don't go expecting a lot, you might find the film makes for a half-evening's worth of laidback diversion.

Audience Reviews for Mother, Jugs and Speed

Oct 13, 2010An engaging, very funny black comedy gem from the mid 70s, expertly directed by the late Peter Yates. It concerns a privately owned ambulance company called the F&B ambulance company, and there intense competition with their rival the Unity ambulance company for a contract with City of Los Angeles. Bill Cosby steals the film outright with his hilarious performance as "Mother", the streetwise seen-it-all EMT, who is forced to partner up with a shady suspended cop nick-named "Speed", nicely played by Harvey Keitel, and the smoking hot "Jugs," the radio dispatcher who has high aspirations of becoming the first women driver and EMT, played wonderfully by the super sexy and sultry Raquel Welch, special kudos must go to the superb character actor Allen Garfield for his memorable comic performance, as Harry Fishbine the neurotic and money-hungry owner of the F & B ambulance company, and the excellent Larry Hagman, as Murdoch a sleazy, oversexed ambulance driver. The supporting all deliver marvelous performances they included L.Q. Jones, Bruce Davidson, Dick Butkus, Miilt Kamen, Barra Grant, Allan Warnick, and Valerie Curtin. Great music soundtrack with many songs from the period, A cool, raunchy film that is an intelligent mix of slapstick and drama. Highly Recommended.Danny R Super Reviewer

Dec 17, 2008A movie with some very funny scenes and some very well acted dramatic ones. It was cool to see some of Cosby's earlier movies, so you know they didn't stink then.Ken D Super Reviewer

Oct 11, 2008This was a good classic Saturday Morning matinee movie. This movie shows the humorous and tragic side on how tough it is to be an ambulance employee. See it...it is a classic.Fascade F Super Reviewer
