Nell Minow Movie Mom Rated: 2/5 Feb 25, 2005 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Unimaginative fantasy farce. Rated: C+ Jun 30, 2021 Full Review Ken Hanke Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) Not terribly good star comedy. Rated: 3/5 Aug 12, 2004 Full Review Carol Cling Las Vegas Review-Journal Rated: 2/5 Mar 12, 2004 Full Review Tony Mastroianni Cleveland Press The Brass Bottle is not a bad-little movie. For that is what it is -- a little movie, well-made but rather unpretentious. Nov 20, 2003 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Really good movie starring Barbara Eden have that I dream of Jeannie Siri yes I will highly recommend it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas October 27, 2023 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Where Sheldon's I Dream of Genie came from - and I can see how he further developed it Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Barbara Eden was a far better genie, which makes this film pathetic. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Could have been worse. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member THIS IS A CLASSIC COMEDY EVERYONE SHOULD SEE Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member ** (out of four) There must be something in here that would later inspire the "I Dream of Genie" sitcom. I can see why since this premise works much better as a hal hour skit than a full length film. Barbara Eden is the fiancee of Tony Randall, who has a genie of his own...in the form of Bur Ives! I think Eden's genie is a bit more memorable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
