| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzWorth checking out if you care to catch Marilyn Monroe in the beginning. |
| User ReviewAj VAn interesting and universal theme is at the heart of this hilarious comedy, check it out. |
| User ReviewChanel MI really enjoyed this movie! Very fun, but one thing I don't get is Marilyn Monroe's role was miniscule and everyone makes such a big deal about her in this specific movie. Great comedy* |
| User ReviewKyle MA sweet satire film where the main character dictates the entire flow of the movie. It was so funny, but not the kind of funny that will put you to tears or blow you away. The entire cast was good, and I think each of them said the words "Consolidated Motors" at least 5 times each. Good film. |
| User ReviewWilliam WI really enjoyed this fine screwball comedy, from a very clever story by Paddy Chayefsky, about a man forced to retire from a beloved printing job because he turned 65. He decides to go straight to the president to question the ageist policy, discovers no one knows what the president looks like, decides to impersonate him, and hilarity ensues. Wonderful roles for Monty Woolley, Thelma Ritter, Constance Bennett and Marilyn Monroe. Heartily recommended if you're in the mood for a few good laughs at the expense of American big business. Still a relevant question that wrangles society today: Whether or not capable people should have to stop doing what they love because of age. I wonder if many instances are simply excuses to incorporate age-related discrimination. |
| User ReviewMari Aguite ok movie, nothing special though. the main acter does a good job, it's a pleasure to watch him. |
| User ReviewRalph RNot Monroe's best but still worth watching. |
| User ReviewSunil JA brisk but pleasant mistaken identity comedy. |
| User ReviewTom HDecent, fun and inventive film from the great 50`s era! I never heard of Monty Wooley, but he sure was great in this! |
| User ReviewPrivate UInteresting, but nothing special. Monroe's talents were squandered here. The rest of the cast was average, as was the story. |
