UQFR #131: Bananas' is bookended by great gags featuring Howard Cosell but the rest is filled with random scattershot gags and slapstick comedy. The writing is raw as there are some great lines in there but ultimately it's forgettable considering his later works.

Uneven, random slapstick, but laughs to be had. Smart and dumb at the same time, can't say that too often.

Most of the film is so unfunny that it's not even funny, but the few scenes that work (e.g., the one in which Woody is dumped) show the promise of what he would go on to be capable of.

Miss America: "I think Mr. Mellish is a traitor to this country because his views are different from the views of the President and others of his kind. Differences of opinion should be tolerated, but not when they're too different. Then he becomes a subversive mother."

It's a collage of silent film comedy, a bit of social commentary and absurd everyday situations that make me think of Monty Python and Larry David. It is unpolished and is changing styles rapidly, but it didn't really bother me, I really was entertained watching it.

Bananas is as random as random bananas can be. Because of its erratic ways the process starts to bore real quick, life itself is random enough, it is not why people watch movies, right? The patchwork of different short sketches suffers from some very shallow water illness and it quickly spreads to the viewer giving him all the 'I don't give a crap anymore' and 'I have surely heard this somewhere' conditions. It has to be watched only if one watching it is high. Seven thumbs down. Wait.. what?

Probably my least favorite of Woody Allen's pure comedy movies. I think I would have loved it if it had been a short movie with only the premise along with the gags that really worked.
