Summary: 5 Stars
"Good News" isn't the best musical the M-G-M Freed Unit turned out, but it rates a very good. With high production values, an engaging cast, peppy music and some wonderful dance numbers ("Pass the Peace Pipe" is delightful), it's great entertaiment. It's amazing how even this lesser musical is so much better than what the other studios, or even other producers at M-G-M, were turning out. We've enjoyed it on VHS for several years (it makes a great "back to school" family movie to watch every fall). I'm glad it's now available on DVD. The DVD transfer is excellent and the extras include a complete deleted musical number with June Allyson.Movie Review: Old movies for young children

When my granddaughter was practicing her French one day, it reminded me of the movie Good News which I saw when I was a young girl. I thought how refreshing it would be for my grandchildren to see a good old fashioned musical with lots of laughter and fun. I wasn't wrong. The girls enjoyed it (more than the young boys) and everyone watched it to the inevitable end when boy gets girl. No foul language, no killings, no blatant SEX scenes. Just good fun.Movie Review: One of the great MGM Musicals
Summary: 5 Stars
I thoroughly love this movie. Everything about it is wonderful - the stars, the songs, the choreography and the excellent DVD extras. It's interesting to see a pre-"Blondie" Penny Singleton exuberantly dancing up a storm in the excerpts from the original film version. The film is highly entertaining and enjoyable. It's a shame it's not better known that it is.Movie Review: The best movie ever
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is one of my personal favorits of all time. It has great acting, wonderful songs/music, and very entertaning dance numbers. The first time I ever saw this movie on TV I ran to the nearest place to rent it. And soon after I got one of my own so I could watch it again and again. I strongly suggest you do the same! You won't regret it.
