History of the World - Part 1
Embodying the humans' history from the very beginning till our time, Mel Brooks, through this great comedy work, chronicles all about each phase in the humans' history in a very satirical manner, by imitating each phase's clothes, language, and all about their daily life in the way of the modern ones, the thing that makes it such a great work.

Fifteen minutes of funny material trying desperately to fill a feature film.

The fact that there has been no Part 2 is ample proof that God hates us all.

Mel Brooks' The History of the World: Part I contains plenty of belly-shaking laughs.

Hearing some of those old, beloved one-liners again made me smile, but they did not have the power to make me laugh anew.

Disjointed Brooks effort that is only occasionally amusing

Crude, rude Mel Brooks has low laughs

Brooks' fractured History is salvaged by the tuneful 'Inquisition.'

Dirty jokes, some sparkle in uneven Mel Brooks classic.

Brooks proved that increasing the vulgarity level doesn't necessarily translate into more laughs. Gag after gag falls flat in this potty-mouthed dud.
