Steve D Unless you just love the dancing there isn't much here. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/25/23 Full Review Jerry R I've seen Fred's 'great ' pics & enjoyed very much, over & over. Had not seen this one. I found it very colorful & imaginative with great sets, excellent dance routines, a swell cast, too. Only fault was it lacked a few timeless/memorable songs to carry an otherwise admirable effort on part of cast. All the great ones have me singing a couple of timeless ditties, after this viewing none of musical numbers have me humming. Every GREAT musical needs @ least 3 giant tunes to take home with viewers!!! JR Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Lesser known MGM musical attempts to be whimsical and doesn't always succeed, but there are plenty of chances to see Fred Astaire & Vera-Ellen dance together (four production numbers in 82 minutes!); Fred's specialty number ("Seeing Is Believing") is ruined by ineffective special effects. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member I love watching Vera & Fred dance. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a story about a playboy who falls in love with a Bowery worker during the turn of the century. He would do anything to get her even do some work. As you are going along I think the movie forgets it's suppose to have a plot. There's pretty much no plot and becomes alot of singing and dancing. Now, fred astaire who I think is very cool does the singing and dancing which he does very well and that kinda makes up for the missing plot. He is very enjoyable to watch when he dances. It's amazing what he can do and he does show his many talents In this movie. The rest of the cast is forgettable. Fred Astaire is very fun to watch when he sings and dances and this movie you might not want to be your first viewing of a movie of his. No plot but very good dancing and some pretty good songs performed by Fred but other than that this movie ain't much of a treasure. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member This very average film is not one of Fred's musical triumphs, but is watchable.
