Crazy People               Comedy

 

* * * 1/2
Dudley Moore is an ad writer who grows weary of lying to people. His "honest" ad campaigns get him confined to a mental institution. Pure Formula, but the ads are often hilarious. .

Stressed-out ad exec Moore devises a series of brutally honest (and very funny) advertisements, which prompt his partner to place him in a mental institution. Then, to everyone's amazement, the ads are a sensational success. Though the mock ads are quite funny, film is bland, even dull. Ever likeable Dudley chalks up a few extra points.
