I thought i was a mock slapstick person but after this movie i guess not…. I see why people like it but it wasnt for me and thats okay!!!! While looking up most of the actors alot of them died a few years after this movie….

Stupid. Simultaneously insanely dated and ahead of its time. I love Tom Hulce as Mozart so much that seeing him in any other role feels like watching gore of my comfort character. Well done in the sense that it achieves everything it sets out to do.
