Brando and Niven both carry the film, milking its color and humor for all its worth, and playing as instrumental of a role as clever writing and lively direction in making the final product a ripping fun, if inconsequential time.

Company Credits Meanwhile Barry Nottingham decides to give a change to Skeeter to dispute the manager position in his new hotel with Kendall like in one of his stories. Bedtime Stories is a 2008 American fantasy comedy film directed by Adam Shankman and written by Matt Lopez and Tim Herlihy. Repetition dies down a spell when focus shifts away from all of the constant conning, but dragging rarely abates amidst all of the borderline aimless unraveling of the plot, which doesn't feel set up, as much as it feels as though it's wandering into its phases, with no real development or extensive characterization. Little do the children know, though, that the motel is in debt, and Marty is forced to sell to an English chap by the name of Barry Nottingham (Richard Griffiths). |, March 26, 2009 The percentage of Approved Tomatometer Critics who have given this movie a positive review. |

Running but a minute shy of 100 minutes, this film isn't very long, although its story is rather light, enough so for an hour and forty minutes to be stretching things a bit, through occasions of dragging, and through more than a few repetitious moments.

You're almost there! Mind you, not too many more people noticed Brando in 1962's "Mutiny on the Bounty" than they noticed Niven in a non-speaking part in the 1935 film of the same name, so Brando's star power wasn't exactly booming at this time, but, come on, Brando is still awesome, and when you get him and David Niven together, it's too fun to be a bedtime story, even if it doesn't compel quite like Brando's many dramas, for reasons extending beyond the lightheartedness.

With the story wrapped up, the final product falls as almost forgettable in its inconsequentiality, worsened by aimless dragging, shortcomings in the development of problematic characters, and by certain conventions that render the final product just another '60s farce, complete with a thorough fun factor that is complimented by lavish art direction, and secured by the well-paced direction, hysterically lively writing, and impeccably charming lead performances by Marlon Brando and David Niven that make Ralph Levy's "Bedtime Story", or "King of the Mountain" (That's the title one winds in the leads' competition, so it actually has a prominent role in the film, and should be the official title) a delightfully entertaining farce, for all of its inconsequentiality.

Official Sites That is at least the case with the leads, Marlon Brando and David Liven, whose conflicting chemistry is almost as delightfully effective as the leads' individual charm, with Liven utilizing his trademark British charisma, occasionally besmirched by a hint of silliness, to capture the smoothness of the Lawrence Jameson character, while Marlon Brando, as a crafty, but sorry sleazeball who will do the smoothest and the wackiest things to get what he wants, abandons his usual seriousness and gets into antics that only further prove his talents as an actor, capable of exuding the energy and audacity to carry a flick this farcical.

(uncredited), Kendall's Assistant Mind you, "The Godfather", "Last Tango in Paris" and "Apocalypse Now" all came out well after this film, but the fact of the matter is that Marlon Brando's career hasn't exactly been leading up to this innocent-seeming comedy. Farcical in its believability and weight, as well as rather conventional, this film's subject matter is nothing particularly worth remembering, but as an almost adventurous opus about two conning lady's men getting caught up in shenanigans and competition, this film has a lot of potential for fun that is fulfilled by Levy, and even more fulfilled by Stanley Shapiro and Paul Henning.

It's just David Niven's luck that right after Peter Sellers steals his thunder in "The Pink Panther", he should find himself leading yet another major comedy, fighting over the spotlight with Marlon Brando. ), or the story of an abusive husband questioning his sister-in-law's mental stability, or the story of violence against worker unions, or, my most favorite stories of all: the one about an old mob boss, or the one about anonymous sex in Paris, or the one about a colonel who goes AWOL and leads a tribe of heathens.

Yup, this film is, in fact, older than Tammy Wynette's career, and don't get too excited, because this film can't possibly be quite as touching as one of Wynette's songs.
