It has almost ALL the cliches of the Old Hollywood detective/drama movies thrown in to a great parody. I was always a Peter Falk fan, starting as a kid. I am 65.
I’m 69,you took the words out of my mouth 🤭
I agree with you! I am 63
I don't think it's as funny as murder by death but it's pretty good. Peter Falk is brilliant at everything.
As the movie industry keeps trying to move us forward. I prefer to go backward to a simpler time. This was no worse then anything we have today.💙
Everyone in this cast was an accomplished, acknowledged actor. Some to become more famous in time. The best part is how no one had an ego problem to play in something so... satirical. Even the little blonde guy at the end is Paul Williams who was a Grammy winning Hall of Famer songwriter/composer. SO COOL. I was only 8 when this came out but I can appreciate it now.
It's incredible the amount of talent and SLaP stick they have crammed into one movie hilarious 😂
I have finally decided that this is now one of my favourite Peter Falk films!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I loved this guy Peter Falk.
The Columbo series were
fantastic. Yes may his soul
RIP.
The photo used to promote this movie is not "The Cheap Detective." It's from "Murder By Death."
Oh yeah you’re right that’s hilarious.
Genius movie best watched when slightly tipsy. One of the funniest satirical, deadpan comedies ever that spawned a whole genre of them.
Madeleine Kahn is unmistakable even in the dark and only speaking. She is missed. R.I.P.
"Would you care for another schnitzengruben?"
Dear Peter Falk, R.I.P.! 🤗
WOW, this is a star studded movie!! Love these.....don't make 'em like this anymore. Tongue in cheek, fast dialogue, so many twists and turns, and sight gags.......
How long ago did they leave your apartment? They didn't leave they're right here listening in... I couldn't help but crack up at that!!!
This is a fun movie, but the picture in the thumbnail is from Murder by Death, with Peter Falk and an incredible cast including comedians and David Niven and Maggie Smith and others. In any event, thank you for posting The Cheap Detective.
They seriously dont make these clever movies anymore. They are hilarious without being crude or raunchy.
This is a brilliant spoof of 1940s 1950s detective movies with that classic style.. the acting, wardrobe in settings are perfect. And the comedy writing is on point. Just a brilliant movie
A great Sunday afternoon film my wife hates it but it cracks me up every time.
I love having access to just good ole movies without an agenda and which is meant to just entertain.
Amen to that!👏👏👏
Hilarious. I think Peter Faulk was a handsome man. The NYC accent added to the flavor 😂😂😂😂
It's common for movies to flag in the second half and end weakly. This one actually gained momentum and ended well.
Some scenes and jokes were better than others but I think I'll be back to watch it again someday. I give it 3½ stars. Thanks, Reel Films.
Perfect combo of wit & humor with the absurd. My kind of comedy. Mom & Dad would've had this among their few comedies. Don't think they ever saw it.
1 Why have I never seen this? The sets...! The acting...! The goils...!!
What a great cast! Falk picks up the phone and points his gun -- and says he was thinking about her... 🤣
Can't believe I've never heard of this movie before.
Outstanding 😂
this is not Murder by Death, that is another film entirely. This is a Neil Simon story which uses bits of famous detective novels of the 30's and 40's, including Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon, and The Big Sleep.
We know the movie is not Murder by Death, but the thumbnail IS from Murder by Death.
why oh why don't movies get made like this anymore?? we're stuck with remakes and comicbook characters in long drawn out backstories.
creativity has gone down the tubes...and so has the quality of people in this country....this movie was spawned before the liberal progressives took over and ruined society and life in general...
@@mustangmikep51 What crap! It was the Commies who did this...or the socialists...or the Woke...or the (fill in blank with most hated group)....
So true.
@@mustangmikep51The prevalence of ignoramuses in the world is even greater than I imagined.
A lot of great actors involved in this movie .
George C. Scott, Peter Falk,
Sad they have all passed on :(
If you don't know Bogart's films, many of these gags escape you. Excellent spoof! Marsha Mason would never again look as good as she did in this movie.
I've always loved this movie....and what a cast. All old pros who know comedy....
I was all ready for a reasonably serious movie, with a bit of Peter Falk quirkiness maybe; then I saw the guy standing there with a bullet hole in his head, still on the phone ... 🤣
Never seen this, but glad I found it. Love a good spoof!
This is a lot of fun. Kinda like Police Squad meets Dead Men Don't wear Plaid 😄
Tin tin + Columbo + Mash + Other. What a combination !. All out of place. Thanks Dave
Now I feel like watching Murder by Death.
😂😂 this movie is so funny 😂 makes me happy to see all these fantastic Hollywood actors and actresses 🥰 Those were great times 🥰
I'm loving it, makes me laugh, and remember the original movies, before my time ,but I watched them anyway, so now I'm over 70, and I'm still enjoying this. And much more!😊
Can't believe I never saw this! WHAT a romp! Great cast, great script, great tongue-in-cheek, wink--wink, nudge-nudge at one of the all-time greatest movies EV-ER! Loved it!
Even comedy was good back in the day. Well written, stellar cast and great fun made out of the detective movies.
I can image how many times they broke character making this spoof. I am glad I found it.
The exchanges in this movie are the funniest ever! Great film, top notch actors. Much enjoyed. Thx!
What a hoot!!! I got COVID for Christmas, and this is day 3 of bed rest. This movie popped up at just the right time. Thanks so much. I nearly fell off the bed kaughing
Laughing
Yep. The flu and common cold no longer exist.
Bot?
Covid , what's that ?
@@Dad-Gad A made up thing to make Big Pharma rich.
an Absolute Classic in comedy 😄😂😆🤣 Brilliant one liners and Definitely getting saved for future viewing, Full Star Rating.👍
Pater Falk pulls off a fantastic Humphrey Bogart accent :)
This is the wrong front cover scene its from Murder by Death.
Correct
When you find out you're 16 hours late to point out a mistake 😢
Murder by Death …..😂
Didn’t watch the movie but would like to know if they found the murder weapon…..
You're going to get this movie taken down. Stifle!
Murder by death no murder weapon they were all "dummies"
Film is genius.
I love a good spoof detective film ❤
Roger Ebert wrote
“Does the movie work? Let me put it this way. If you loved “The Maltese Falcon” and can recite all the best lines from “Casablanca” by heart, you'll hate “The Cheap Detective,” which is basically just the year's classiest and most expensive rip-off.”
But don’t listen to that tumor faced freak - this movie is fantastic!
Hello Georgia. I just had you on my mind.😂😂
Of course the girls run off with the movie - hands down.........even if there's plenty of jokes to go for all around......
Madeline Kahn/Eileen Brennan/ Ann-margret /Stockard Channing/ Louise Fletcher/MarshaMason what a club.
The very first ridiculous joke has me hooked..... And the last time I saw the guy delivering it, he was being shot to pieces in The Godfather
Abe Vigoda, Tessio in God Father and detective Fish from Barney Miller
Great cast. Great movie. Thanx.
Loved the advertising, I bought 6 of everything!
Hoppy, the driver in the last scene who has one line and a bit of knowing mugging for the camera, was played by Phil Silvers. Bit players got more lines and more screen time than he did! Apparently, the problem was Silvers had suffered a stroke and was left with slurred speech.
the older i get the less patience i have, but u gotta love the best detective of all time. oh, and one more thing before i go... lol. love that line.
Talk about a star studed cast! Wow! Great movie!
Loved this! I think the script is funnier than The Naked Gun.
A great parody of Casablanca with some Maltese Falcon thrown in. Thank you! It's been a really long time since I saw it. Not Murder By Death, as expected, but just as good.
Thank you so much for this! It made my Christmas! I had never even heard of it before and I'm always looking for new comedies because I've seen so many that I sometimes run out of options - the world full of crap comedies. This one is on a par with 'Airplane!' Thanks again - I will always be indebted to you for this. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Have you ever seen “Christmas in Connecticut?” It’s my favorite Christmas movie!
Thanks for the movie, just what I needed today 🙂
Why are people saying this is Murder By Death? It is called The Cheap Detective, I even Googled it, because I wanted to see all the actors in it, it's from 1978, but the other movie was from 1976, it too has Peter Falk, Eileen Brennan, James Coco and James Cromwell, and both was made by Neil Simon, and is a comedy too, but they are still two different movies. It also has Peter Sellers, Maggie Smith and David Niven, among others. Though I can kind of understand, since this channel used a scene from Murder By Death as the thumbnail, for some reason, but if you watch this movie, you should know it's not Murder By Death, if you know that movie at all, that is.
Anyway, I really enjoyed this movie, it's a lot of fun, and very funny, I had never seen it before today! It's funny also because of Peter Falk being known for playing Columbo for years on tv and in a few movies.
I do wish I could find Murder By Death to watch for free too, but UA-cam, and others has it, but only to rent, which figures!
Because the thumbnail is from Murder By Death !
thanks for the info. I was so confused that Maggie Smith wasn't in this. Got Stockard Channing and Ann Margaret instead though so can't complain much
They aren't ,they just recognize it's a photo from Murder By Death.
Oh what a fun watch, the ensemble cast work well together. Thank you.
No sense crying over spilt husband's 🤣😂 what an hilarious movie
You absolutely cannot go wrong with lines heard in here like: "...you come in here with your bedroom eyes and your dining room lips..." OMG! So many grins :-)
Those 2 kids would be alive today. 😅. Pulls a martini outa his desk drawer!😊
Such a great movie. Bohgart would be proud.
How have I never seen this silly movie? That was fun.
i love this movie, especially knowing peter falk was most well known for columbo/
yeah, I really liked him in "The In-Laws".
Love watching a movie like this
I laughed throughout the entire movie. Funny good!
Saw this years ago , still hilarious.
Peter Falk was in Ann-Margret's first film. Pocketful of Miracles. By Capra!
"Watch it ! Watch it !...you're spilling Floyd ! " 😂😂
Funny! Star filled. Peter Falk is great, as usual.
Reading comments i think you have to know the genre to understand the references or the movie isn't funny. Like watching Scream having never seen a horror movie. I'm a huge Bogart fan, and enjoyed it immensely.
Casablanca meets The Maltese Falcon. Highly entertaining, Columbo a good choice.
Does Peter Falk not steal an ash tray in every movie he is in or what?
I laughed all the way through.🤣
I'm guessing due to copyright issues you can't use the real name of the film. It's still hilarious with so much "tongue in cheek" comedy. I still love this film nearly 5 decades later. 😅
*What's the name? Ta*
@sohara.... Someone else already gave the name in another comment, "Murder by Death". It came out in the 70's. I saw it at the theatre when it was released.
The thumbnail picture is incorrect, the film linked IS the Cheap Detective and it is amazing.
the thumbnail image is not from this film but from Murder by Death (1976).
I never knew nurse Ratched had star quality.
remember watching this as a kid!! amazing cast and bloody good movie
Madness, just loved it thanks putting it up
"The Maltese Falcon" rides again.
Aren’t you going to light my fire 🔥? I was just noticing your kindling
I loved this movie! 😂❤
DOES 500 DOLLARS INTEREST YOU ??-THEN BRING IT,-IT'S AN "EXPENSIVE RESTURANT"--(I have to use that one day !!)--BRILLIANT--!!
The entire star-packed comedy is delicious, but Eileen Brennan reprising Madeline Kahn's schtick from Blazing Saddles: "La la la la la la la la La Vie en Rose!" then channeling Lauren Ball in To Have and Have Not: "You know how to dial, don't you? ..." What a hoot!
'Are you gonna light my fire?' Hahah
Humour-wise, this is surely a prequel to the 'Airplane' films. Rare instance of American humour that is actually funny.
Not ha-ha funny or hi-hi funny, but just plain he-he funny.
American cartoon satire….Hollywood in the 70s…..it led into the bubblegum vibe of the 80s…..👀🇺🇸🏝️
No doubt you illicit howls of derisive laughter each time you speak or go out in public.
this was such a charming movie.
I love this movie! Seen it three times.
Peter Faulk, unbelievably funny. The laughter kept building until I had to declare an interval to get the strength to laugh some more. Taking liberties with the English language as in 'Pass the buck' which is American anyway !!
One of the reasons people seem to get this movie and Murder By Death confused is that they are both written by Neil Simon, spoofing murder mysteries and detective movies.
The Cheap Detective and Murder By Death, both have Peter Faulk as detectives. Both movies are Great!!❤😀
@@twatquat3322and eileen brennan and james coco and james cromwell. Both movies are directed by robert moore murder in 1976 and cheap in 1978
@@twatquat3322and it s peter FALK
They are completely different though.
This is a ball. Such a fun script.
HILARIOUS!!!😂🤣
great spoof of Casablanca and other favorites, great cast, if you are in the mood for silly fun watch it
I have a little inkling that I've seen this long ago, but now I've got it watched it twice in a role and it's even funnier the second time 🤣😂🤣❤️
Yup. Corny American humor…..👀🇺🇸gets ya the second time around.
What a great cast! Fun movie.
wow what a cast. very funny
Great video always glad to see MR VIGODA 🙏🤠 acting in anything thanks for sharing this movie 🎥👍 cheers Stephen 🤠🦅⭐
I love this movie. Peter Falk was a great actor and very, very good at comedy.
The problem I have is that your introduction picture is from "Murder by Death"; NOT "The Cheap Detective".
Lost Madeline Kahn too soon.
Funny movie, great cast !!
