It's a mostly forgotten work today, despite its all right construction and the funny performance by a restrained Sellers.

Though it may be distinguished by its virtuosic comedic performances from Terry-Thomas and Peter Sellers, I'M ALL RIGHT, JACK, John Boulting's sly satire of class struggle in postwar England, is a comic gem in its own right. The film stars Ian Carmichael as Stanley Windrush, a recent Oxford graduate and old money aristocrat who decides to work for a living in early 1950s England. Deciding to keep his background a secret, Stanley takes a menial position at his uncle's armaments factory, where his incompetence arouses the suspicion of his fellow laborers and the sympathy of the loony Works Committee boss (Sellers). Soon, the good-hearted Stanley finds himself in the middle of the complex class struggle between management and labor and the unwitting patsy in his uncle's crooked scheme. [More]

Reviews for I'm All Right, Jack
...the Boulting brothers' acerbic satire I'm All Right Jack (1959) is a merciless and hilarious dagger thrown at both Labor and Management, two opposing factions each rotten with exclusive self-interest.
