Cute Shirley MacLaine with a star-studded cast vs. a Robin Hood parody that falls flat most of the time. I love the scene in What a Way to Go! where Shirley MacLaine is wearing the black bikini and the guy tries to paint her pink. The whole movie is colorful, but with a slightly dark sense of humor. There was a part in Men in Tights with Dave Chappelle that I slightly recall being kind of funny, but I'm hazy on the details.

Men in Tights is just possibly Brooks at hs worst. WAWTG is bloated and bland (and worst of all, not very funny), but its bloat is kind of the point. It wins here.
