Seen it?

Overview

In the guest-house of sister Klivia, the inhabitants are very cheerful and good-hearted persons whose open communal lifestyle is contrasted with the life of somewhat nasty and complaining neighbour Mr Boordevool. Boordevool has spent ages looking for reasons to shut the guest-house. One day a girl from the guest-house meets a nice young guy Gerrit. Sister Klivia lets Gerrit stay regardless of him being a thief. Will that give a chance to the insinuations of the neighbour?

Yes Nurse, No Nurse is fun -- if you get into its groove.

Marta Barber, Miami Herald
Fresh

A campy, brightly colored musical comedy based on a popular '60s Dutch sitcom that's unlike any other film out there.

Lou Lumenick, New York Post
Rotten

This nonsensical Dutch movie musical rides on the dubious assumption that camp and infantilism are the same thing.

Stephen Holden, New York Times
Fresh

Styles range from cabaret to barbershop to toe-tapping bubblegum, and the rainy-day serenade at the start nods Cherbourgward, with a soupcon of Low Countries sass.

Ed Park, Village Voice
Rotten

At once corny and precious, its humor seems too heavily ethnic to travel well.

Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
