...keeper of the brand image. When Tiger Woods made his debut in Nike gear, there were so many logos on him that he looked as if he had got caught in an embroidering machine. Now most of the company's TV ads sign off with Nike's script logo. Expect to see more...

Inparticular, Burke, as Seargant Match, does ahilariously comical performance while describinghis efforts to recover that body part of WinstonChurchill which had been importunely stolen.Greaves and Smith are equally proficient inmilking every melodramatic funny bone in theaudience with their overactive (if repressed)sexual drives. However, the production takentogether...
