The beautiful Alpine locations and sets are essentially the only redeeming aspects of this otherwise overly convoluted movie.

Although it overuses some gags to the point of repetition, this unbelievably cartoonish silent comedy still provides several good laughs.

The mix of Python-esque animation, simplified costumes, funny action, and over-the-top acting come together to create an unconventional and unusual cocktail that is really enjoyable.

The film has several visually stunning highpoints, accompanied by a tremendous bluesy soundtrack and score by the late great Robbie Robertson.
