| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis Schwartz... never that funny or intelligent as it appears to be at first glance. |
| Goatdog's MoviesMichael W. Phillips, Jr.[Leisen] keeps things moving at a nice pace, and his attention to detail in the sets and costumes makes the film a joy to look at. |
| User ReviewGregory Wgood stuff good chemistry between the 2 lesds and though I'm not a big fan of lombard she shines here. |
| User ReviewStephen MI became a fan of Ralph Bellamy after this film. He's always shunted into the other guy role in the comedies that I thought that was all he was good for. Boy was I wrong. He does a great dramatic role here. Lombard and MacMurray are great, too- not forgetting the bickering that prevails until the end. More a romance, though. |
| User ReviewAmrita SI love old movies. I have never seen a Carole Lombard movie. This was my first. I really enjoyed it. Fred MacMurray is devilishly handsome and has his pipe in hand "ala" Mr. Douglas from My Three Sons" Speaking of that, how great was it to see Fred have a scene with William Demarest in this movie. Great fun for an old film. Not too long and not too boring. Good one to watch. |
| User ReviewJazz PDelicious Lombard ,i f you are a classic fan! |
| User ReviewMatt HInteresting and very oddball romantic comedy. Poor Ralph Belamy. |
| User ReviewEvan HI liked that Carole Lombard is a manicurist in this movie. I must say Fred and Carole are great in this! I really found some parts quite funny at times! |
| User ReviewScott RBreezy lark with a sparkling Carole Lombard. She and Fred work well together as always and if you only know him from his years as the retiring dad on My Three Sons he's quite dishy here. Ralph Bellamy is the odd man out again but at lest his Allen is afforded some dignity here instead of being the poor sap he usually got stuck playing. |
| User ReviewJoe MPredictable and the slightest of plot for this story of a manicurist trying to snag a rich husband. Yet, the movie is made enjoyable due to the comic performances of Lombard and MacMurray. |
