Leave your thoughts about Yankee Doodle Dandy.
| Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)Bob BloomA timeless treasure that will never fade. Cagney is great; Huston unforgetable. A wonderful slice of Americana. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonMaybe the best-case scenario for what happens when a film biopic does everything right. |
| New TimesLuke Y. ThompsonCagney rocks, if indeed one can use that verb to describe a movie about George M. Cohan |
| The New York TimesBosley CrowtherAs warm and delightful a musical picture as has hit the screen in years, a corking good entertainment and as affectionate, if not as accurate, a film biography as has ever—yes, ever—been made. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranWhatever he did, Cagney came across as one of the most dynamic performers in movie history--a short man with ordinary looks whose coiled tension made him the focus of every scene. |
| Video-Reviewmaster.comSteve CrumFlag waving, toe tapping, GREAT James Cagney performance as Broadway's George M. Cohan. |
| The A.V. ClubNick SchagerThere may be no American movie more patriotic than Yankee Doodle Dandy, a jingoistic biopic of famed Broadway star George M. Cohan that transcends its innumerable genre clichés through the sheer willpower of its star. |
| Tim Dirks' The Greatest FilmsTim DirksYankee Doodle Dandy (1942) is one of Hollywood's greatest, grandest and slickest musicals - the nostalgic, entertaining film also supported the war |
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloPatriotic '40s classic charms, but some dated behaviors. |
| Los Angeles TimesMark Chalon SmithIf you can push past the flag-waving, this Warner Brothers effort from 1942 is a superior entry in a dubious genre, the musical biography. Michael Curtiz's direction is supple and intelligent, but what makes the movie is James Cagney's manic blur of a performance. |
