mostly good, but they could have used someone other than Dudley Moore, 30 December 2006
6/10
Author: Lee Eisenberg (eisenberg.lee@gmail.com) from Portland, Oregon, USA

For the most part, "Blame It on the Bellboy" is low comedy: a bellhop (Bronson Pinchot) in a Venice hotel confuses the invitations going to a realtor (Dudley Moore), a philanderer (Richard Griffiths) and a mafioso (Bryan Brown), sending each man to the wrong location. There are some funny situations along the way - most of which involve the bellhop himself - but I think that it would have come out a little better had they cast someone other than Dudley Moore; Chevy Chase, Steve Martin or Dan Aykroyd could have done that role easily.

So, it's a nice, silly way to pass time. But don't bother with it more than once. All the cast members have done better than this.

In H-H-Honolulu, H-H-Hawaii for a wh-wh-whole h-h-half h-h-hour...
