I was very impressed by this riff, 9/10.
I had never seen the movie before so I watched it Friday night. I was amazed at how perfect a film it was...... 10/10.
I watched the riff Saturday and was very pleased to see that the boys can riff on a geat film and make it funny.
Though I haven't had time to finish the whole riff yet, this is summing up my thoughts so far very well. I'll vote once I get enough time to watch the whole thing. |

I will watch this a few more times before I vote, but my initial impression is that it's either a 9 or a 10. I was eager to see how well the three a-Riffers could do against a classic like this, and they did a great job.
I should note that I've watched the movie enough times that I have much of it already memorized, so the riff didn't distract me from remembering how great the movie is.

I think it's a funny riff but what I like about it the most is the fact they obviously hold the movie is high regard so they had to work a little for the jokes and there was none of the cheap "this movie sucks", "that guy's annoying" shtick they often fall into. I'd definitely be up for more 'classics' being riff-fodder. The riffing does come off like teenagers in a theater who ruin a movie with their smart ass remarks. Never before in the history of riffing have I experienced that sensation.... but Casablanca is not a pizza that's was in need of bacon.
Makes a change from my feeling like the guys coming across as parents making fun of a movie that's not aimed at them I guess. |

My feeling was more along the lines that I wanted to "shush" the guys so I could concentrate on the film, lol. I still gave it a favorable write up at the website... Casablnaca Review |

Casablnaca ReviewI know, I'm saying I've felt the same way for many riffs. Just not this one. |

Hard one to rate with the movie being so good.... No real side splitters for me, but good laughs every 5 minutes or so... Riff had a happy vibe to it. So an 8..
I'd love to see them do "Te Have And Have Not", one of my favorite old movies.

Finally watched Casablanca riffed last night.
We all thought it was great. My wife had been a bit skeptical about it, I think, but our guest choose it as the movie we'd watch and we all laughed pretty solidly.
Having said that, I still feel like a bad movie riffed is more fun than a good movie riffed.
Like Jaws, for example, which again we found really funny, it still doesn't quite have the same... charm?
But still, funny is funny and it was funny.
Good work guys!

I loved this one. I wonder if it was not very successful saleswise as there hasn't been another Rifftrax Challenge movie since.

I have no idea but I get the feeling that is wasn't super successful. I hope they eventually get around to riffing Citizen Kane, but I'm not holding my breath. |
