So this is where those 2 ripped off their act from? I always suspected so. These guys are the REAL DEAL.

Hey "kapukirk" your age (or lack of) is showing. Martin and Lewis first met in 1944 and officially started working together in the late 40's - these guys were the ripoff artists!

I'll say this much, I think Sammy Petrillo is funnier as Jerry Lewis than Jerry Lewis!

I'm not a big fan of Martin and Lewis and separately, I am a bigger fan of Dean than I am of Jerry. But these 2 guys in this movie are the worst. This must be one of the most blatant rip-offs in movie history.
