Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzA mild satire on an adulterous affair between bored suburbanites.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UAn unusual film for both Lucille Ball and Bob Hope!Such a great movie I cried and it's known as the "cheater movie" with my mom and I. It's always on TCM check it out.
User Review - 10/10 by Nate TClassic Ball & Hope teaming which even won an Oscar. On Blu-ray.
User Review - 8/10 by Carlos RYou can't go wrong with Lucille Ball and Bob Hope!
User Review - 8/10 by Bunny RJust a lame comedy that turns seriously romantic and pretty good at that. Who'd know that the these two improbable friends would find serious love? We sure don't and until they hit their island paradise,.... they don't either. Hey, it could happen to you. And that's exactly what make this quaint sixties film (barely, at 1960) watchable. Oh, forget the sixties clothes if that is a turn off. Forget Hope's lame dialog too. The point of this film is deadly serious. Just imagine two of many couples going on a vacation only to find at the last possible minute that their spouses not only will be late but will not arrive? This is one hell of a perdicament for Hope and Ball. But they go through all the motions of adulterous lovers trapped by their past. I would suggest this movie be watched by anyone even thinking of leaving their spouse. The problems encountered will make you think about it. The film was nominated for five Academy Awards, winning one for Costume Design (for Edith Head and Edward Stevenson). For her performance, Lucille Ball was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actress - Comedy. Written, directed, and produced by the longtime Hope associates Melvin Frank and Norman Panama, the film was more serious than many other contemporary Hope vehicles. Won Oscar for: Best Costume Design (Edith Head and Edward Stevenson) Oscar Nominated: Best Art Direction, Black and White (J. McMillan Johnson, Kenneth A. Reid, and Ross Dowd) Best Cinematography, Black and White (Charles Lang) Best Original Song (Johnny Mercer for "The Facts of Life") Best Original Screenplay (Melvin Frank and Norman Panama) Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy (Lucille Ball)
User Review - 8/10 by Bradley HThis is a terrific comedy/drama that is still very relevant today. I'm shocked that Ball and Hope agreed to star in a movie about adultery, but I'm glad they did. I had no idea how it was going to turn out, which is exceptionally rare for a movie from this generation.
User Review - 8/10 by Allan CI liked it a lot! It was really funny, but not too absurd or unbelievable.
User Review - 8/10 by LoThis movie was so cute and so touching it was not your everyday wholesome love story A great story of beautiful love affairs full of passion, laughter, and just that one thing that was missing in their current relationship
User Review - 6/10 by a;slkfj aANY FILM WITH BOB HOPE AND LUCILLE BALL COULDN'T BE TOO BAD. BUT, IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH BETTER. SOME OF THE COMEDY IS FORCED, BUT OVERALL IT IS ENJOYABLE.
User Review - 6/10 by JessicaAnn DFor those who always wondered what would happen if Lucy ever hooked up with Bob Hope, here is your dream movie. Hope and Ball play off one another well in this comedy about an affair between frenemies. Ball plays the tired and true housewife who betrays her husband out of boredom while Hope is tired of the organized life his wife forces down his throat. The movie is solid and it tumbles along nicely, I only wish the comedy didn't lie so heavily on Hope. Ball is a hilarious woman, but the script mainly segregates her to the straight man role. A decent enough laugh.
