Bombs!
When a new reformist mayor refuses to cave to corruption, his opponents plot terroristic reprisal. Their efforts go awry in very goofy ways (including some wild stunts). This rambunctious comedy from Mack Sennett's Keystone Studios features his stars Charles Murray as a scheming campaign manager and Louise Fazenda as the the fiancee he unwisely scorns in favor of the mayor's daughter.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its comedy from the gap between sinister political plots and their hilariously bungled execution, relying on Sennett's signature chaotic energy and daring physical stunts.
What lingers after the final reel is the pure, anarchic joy of watching meticulously planned schemes unravel into glorious, goofy failure. — MovieFinder Editorial
