The Ladies' Man (1961)
Member Rating:  
Comedian Jerry Lewis began directing movies in 1960, and this often unkind satire on the nature of American womanhood is one of his early efforts in that regard. The rubber-legged, rubber-faced Lewis plays Herbert, a man who is despondent over the break-up of his romance. While looking for a job, he comes across an impressive mansion (built as a set at the cost of $350,000) filled with women of all types -- and lo and behold -- they need a handyman. So Herbert gets to reside with a bevy of women of various types, all under the supervision of Mrs. Wellenmelon (Helen Traubel). In the end, the set itself outtrumps them all. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

    No one really appreciates Jerry Lewis. The French say he is a comic Genius, but here in America people say he is over rated. I grew up in the Jerry Lewis era and I would like to say that Jerry Lewis is very funny and that everyone should show all his movies to the younger generation. No nudity, sex or killing, just plain fun and laughter. A must see for Jerry Lewis fans and faans of laughter.

    I have seen some bad movies but this one is in my top 10 worst movies of all time. Maybe it's a cultural thing since I was born in 1975? My grandmother may have liked this movie when there were no other alternatives. Fortunately there are alternatives. Watch any other movie than this one.
