Movie Reviews of On the Riviera
Movie Review: On the Riviera 1951
Summary: 5 Stars
It's double the fun and laughter as Danny Kaye (1913-1987) gives a dual-role Performance in the uproarios musical comedy , ON THE RIVERA, costarring Gene Tierney (1920-1991) and Corine Calvert (1925-2001). When celebrated French aviator and Ladies'man , Capitaine Henri Durant (Kaye) is unable to attend an all-important social soiree , his business partners hire an American nightclub entertainer , Jack Martin (Kaye , again) to take his place . Bearing an uncanny resemblance to the world famou-flier , Martin becomes the hit of the party , especially with Duran's long-suffering wife , Lili (Thierney), an amorous young woman who can't quit tell the two apart . A madcap tour de farce , those songs , dances and laughts sparkle as brightly as its Technicolor . High Quality Transfer . Recommended .Movie Review: One of His Best
Summary: 5 Stars
On the Riviera thoroughly displays the amazing talent of Danny Kaye as he doubles most convincingly as an entertainer and the flirtatious fellow the actor is paid to emulate, since they look so very alike. Danny Kaye is one of the very few that acted from the heart and can carry you unabashedly to tears at the moment of painful truth with him or clown around and behave so absolutely slapstick silly you cannot stop roaring! Few actors have ever been so gifted with talent in all areas as this man and to see him in action is a great privilege, even from the movie screen. I love this movie, it is clean, quality family entertainment that will keep you simultaneously riveted and charmed. Danny Kaye is fascinating in every performance and Riviera is dinner and dessert all in one.Movie Review: On the Riviera

I have wanted this movie for the longest time and now I have it!
I love Danny Kaye he is such a talented actor. When you watch this movie you will find yourself wanting to watch it again and again. The 'Po Po The Puppet' scene is one you will want to watch over and over. My kids made me watch it over and over and each time it makes you laugh. Danny kaye makes comedy actors today look ordinary they have nowhere near the talent of Danny Kaye. I am so pleased to have it my collection of Danny Kaye movies. Truly Classic!
Movie Review: Great movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great movie. A fun remake of "That Night in Rio with Don Ameche. Danny Kaye is a very verstile entertainer who can sing, dance and act. He really pulls off the double role he plays as an entertainer and a wealthy man who has a reputation as a ladies man. A couple of the songs in this movie harken back to my childhood and enhances the enjoyment of this movie. A must see!Movie Review: On the Riviera
Summary: 5 Stars
An adorable Danny Kaye movie. He plays two parts a rich playboy and a night club singer/dancer. Danny can not be beat - I especially love his song, "Popo the puppet" - that alone is worth buying the movie!
