Black comedy is a tough commodity to sustain and, after a broad start, Edwards quickly finds a deft balance that paints a cockeyed, self-contained world that comfortably supports its exaggerated characters.
It seems more like an expectorant for Edwards' bile than an entertainment aimed at an audience.
It's a nasty, biased, self-serving movie that also happens to be hilarious most of the time.
Cynical satire on Hollywood has no punch, just a lot of inane jabs.
S.O.B. is a poison pen letter to the industry, a film of undisguised hatred. Edwards' sense of the funny has sunk to sour insults.
Blake Edwards' outrageous S.O.B. may never be held in the same regard as Sunset Boulevard or The Player, but as a searing satire about the underbelly of the Hollywood lifestyle, it still ranks as one of the best.
Audience Reviews for S.O.B.
I mostly watched this to see Julie Andrews 45 yr old boobies. Guess what? They were fantastic! The movie was decent too, but no masterpiece.

This movie has an amazing cast and a great deal of potential but it's a little too all over the place. But...it has one of my favorite things in the world of movies...Squeaky clean actors I like/love doing/saying inappropriate things! Julie Andrews appears topless and says some bad words and, for me, that makes it almost worth recommending.
