It doesn’t amount to much more than some winsome smirks and a chuckle or two, but its mere existence is a delight.

While the more dramatic side of The Planters does not totally gel, when the movie works, it is a slice of delightfully idiosyncratic comedic genius. The cast is terrific, the screenplay is amusing, and the whole affair is immensely rewatchable.
