Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex * But Were Afraid To Ask
"A cockeyed and insanely funny film! It is recklessly absurd in a way that no one can rival!" -New Yorker Magazine
Woody Allen pushes the frontiers of comedy by consolidating his madcap sensibility and wickedly funny irreverence with his developing penchant for visually arresting humor. Giving complete indulgence to the zany eccentricity of his medium, Allen reveals himself as a filmmaker of "wit, sophistication, and comic insight" (Cue).
Allen rises to the occasion with several hysterical vignettes that probe sexuality's stickiest issues! Aphrodisiacs prove effective for a court jester (Allen) who finds the key to the Queen's (Lynn Redgrave) heart -- but learns that the key to her chastity belt might be more useful. Unnatural acts get wild and wooly when a good doctor (Gene Wilder) falls for a fickle sheep. Jack Barry gives fetishism 20 question on a wacky TV show called "What's My Perversion?" sex-research goes under the microscope when a mad scientist (John Carradine) unleashes a monstrous, marauding breast. And the absurdity comes to a frenzied climax with Tony Randall, Burt Reynolds and Allen as sperm...having second thoughts about ejaculation!

Hilarious Sketch Comedy - Ptimmyj
I am definitely a fan of sketch comedy (i.e. Monty Python's Flying Circus) as well as a fan of Woody Allen's trademark comedy style, so this was a real treat for my friends and I. This is the perfect movie to watch with a group of people and laugh out loud to the ridiculous antics of the superb comedy cast this movie offers. It may be dated but I actually quite enjoyed the retrospective qualities of this film. Highly recommended if you enjoy wit and absurdity!everyone who has sex must watch... - amythicalcreature
a brilliant movie...
one of my favorites, being on zip has helped me recognize what the classics are, and this is truly that..
Although the first scene with the fool never makes me laugh. Gene Wilder and Daisy are a hoot..
This is a must see..
and may I never end up on the ceiling...doesnt hold up.. - Aenimus
while this was one of my favourite movies growing up, i have to agree it's dated and at times tedious to watch. still, two scenes, the inner workings of the body and the ridiculous giant boob horror sketch, still hold up somewhat. if you havent seen it, it's wroth a go, if you have, it's time to move on.
