Steve D 01/09/2024 Mixed but quite cute. See more Zazoo909 C 08/20/2023 Utterly adorable. Two or three plot holes and pacing issues in the second half, but hell, Carole Lombard, with near-genius comic timing, steals the show and steals your heart. Fred MacMurray tries, but he can't resist her, despite her compulsive lying, and neither can I. Sure, by today's PC standards, some will say she comes off as a goofy, airy precursor to Goldie Hawn, but she's ten times more charming - and funny! - than 90% of other leading lady comics, regardless of the decade. See more 12/14/2020 A very simple and sweet comedy with a very good performance by Carol Lombard. However the movie's potential is squashed by the completely ridiculous and pointless character of John Barrymore. See more 12/14/2020 simple, sweet comedy with a very nice performance by Carol Lombard. but John Barrymore completely ruins it with his absurd and pointless character. See more 09/06/2012 awesomely funny and delightful rom-com See more 12/13/2011 What a mess this thing is! Both lead characters are fools and irritating in the bargain. Carole's native intelligence shines through which actually weakens the movie since it reminds you that a woman obviously this smart would never do things so stupid. Fred's part is a dullard simp and even he would never believe the ridiculous things his wife comes up with. John Barrymore, or rather what's left of him at this point, is beyond hammy with another character that makes no sense. The only bright spot is Una Merkel who gives a sprightly cute performance of the only person in the picture who seems like she would actually exist. Aside from her the movie is a dog.
