Jo C Lots of singing that I admit I fast forwarded it or went to get water. It was entertaining. I read a review that was off putting because they put today’s standards into a 1948 movie. Thing to remember is the time period this was made was a different world. Remember it was 1948, relationship “rules” or standards were way different. Entertaining enough to have a good “thinking break”. Nothing to worry about or think about watching this movie. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/08/25 Full Review Audience Member Esther Williams plays a movie star and guess what - she swims! At some point all the Esther Williams movies are starting to get a bit formulaic, but they are enjoyable none the less. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Esther Williams romantic musical comedy about movie star Williams in the middle of a love triangle on the set of her latest film. Navy technical advisor Peter Lawford is in love with her, but she's engaged to her on set co-star, Ricardo Montalban. It's all fluff, but it enjoyable enough. Montalban is great, as always and it's fun to see him do some musical numbers. There's also Jimmy Durante, Xavier Cugat and one of my favorite female dancers, Cyd Charisse. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Colorful MGM nonsense was one of the top box office hits of 1948. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member all star cast in this esther williams musical vehicle Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member I loved the Cyd Charisse dance numbers, and Ricardo Montalban shoes that he was one of the most underrated actors of that time. But the story!...! f-ck! what a sham. This movie teaches you that it is OK to stalk a woman you have 'loved' for 3 years (even though she does not know you exist), break up her perfectly happy engagement with another man she loves, kidnap her and them 'make' her fall in love with you. Hated the story. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
