Movie Reviews of My Favorite Wife
Movie Review: I hate to say it...
Summary: 2 Stars
...but this is a pretty weak movie. I'm a huge Cary Grant fan and think his charisma, versatility, and impeccable comic timing are justly legendary. My Favorite Wife just barely slides by on those strengths, along with Irene Dunne's charm. The writing is clunky, clumsy, and--worst of all--rarely particularly funny. The situations in this movie could have been flat-out hilarious but instead only manage to be mildly amusing. Unless you're a Grant completist, there's no rush to get this one. (Just wait until TCM inevitably airs it again.) There are many far funnier, better scripted and directed Grant comedies.2.5 stars
Movie Review: Huh? Colorized Version? But Why? Shame on You, Warner!
Summary: 1 Stars
I was about to order this one until I read the comments by the reviewer from Holladay, UT. Just proves you have to carefully check out the description of a DVD before ordering. I couldn't conceive that this film would be released other than in black and white.What could Warner be thinking by releasing the "Crayola" version? Didn't the studios realize a long time ago that their experiment with colorization was a big disaster?
Amazon.com should provide reviewers with a "0-stars" option to deal with situations like this one. Being forced to award Warner 1 star for this tragedy is very painful.
Movie Review: Cary Grant NOT at his best
Summary: 1 Stars
I love Cary Grant movies, but this one was a huge disappointment! As he finds himself in the predicament of just having married the second time, then his first wife who has been presumed dead for seven years shows up, what is he to do? He dearly loves his first wife, the mother of his two children, but he can't bring himself to tell the second wife. He is spineless and the biggest wimp of a man I have ever seen. Not the Cary Grant I know!Movie Review: Too Bad It's Been Colorized
Summary: 1 Stars
I can't believe it! One of my favorite Cary Grant movies, finally released on DVD, and they chose to use the colorized version!!!WHO WAS THE MARKETING GENIUS THAT COME UP WITH THIS ONE?
I love this little movie, but now I'll have to take a pass on buying the DVD.
Sorry Warner Home Video, you messed up on this one........
