- Bad acting enjoyed but weak; mistreatment of women central legacy, including dumpster, domestic violence and period joke. Psychological character logic defended without approving conduct.
- Puppet ventriloquism odd and apparently dubbed versus dark and loved.
- Des/Modernaires peak and album omission regretted. Morris/Jerome dancing at end undermines rivalry after cruel insult, compared with wrestling.
- Prince/Apollonia reaction chemistry good but acting weaker. Later movie career criticized, Graffiti Bridge defended by other participant; Prince spiritual-intent quote and Wizard of Oz comparison reported.
- Time and Busboys career potential regretted; Morris difficult behavior on set remains speculation.
