Reviews. Hardly Working. Roger Ebert January 01, 1981. Tweet. Now streaming on: Powered by JustWatch. "Hardly Working" is one of the great non-experiences of my moviegoing life. I was absolutely stunned by the vast stupidity of this film. It was a test of patience and tolerance that a saint might not have passed--but I didn't walk out.
