StephenPaul C LOL, the funniest 01 hour: and 22 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A very silly movie that made me laugh out loud at many points. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A Nutty Professor type comedy which leads to some funny and some cringe worthy moments. The husband's blind ambition leaves him gullible to the quack inventions of a crazy scientist, while at the same time it makes him oblivious to his gem of a wife. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review kevin w This marriage comedy concerns a couple's constant bickering around their attempts to go on their honeymoon always being subverted by the husband's advertising business. All he needs is one big campaign and then they'll be able to go. The only thing is: the wife (Lucille Ball) always proves herself quicker than the husband (Franchot Tone), and so he takes offense, and thus they argue. Sound like a sitcom? You betcha. And it plays like one too, however a poorly written one. Meh. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Lucy Ball brilliant sometimes. Not this time. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Lucy's full of spunk and she's surrounded by great character actors but the husband that Tone plays is a sexist jerk.
