Movie Reviews of Swing Shift

Movie Review: Woman Enter the Workforce While Men Are at War
Summary: 4 Stars

This is Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell at their best. While the men are off to war (WWII), the woman are called to help their country by working for an airplane manufacturing factory. It's a woman's coming of age story in many ways with some great music and a few love stories thrown in for good measure. Christine Lahti is a stand out in her co-starring role.

Movie Review: Swing Shift DVD
Summary: 4 Stars

Excellent underrated film depicting the unique issues and trials faced by American women during World War II. There were production troubles/script rewrites and critics had a field day, but with charismatic big names adding weight it ranks as one of the most touching and memorable WWII films that I have seen in recent years.

Movie Review: Swing Shift
Summary: 4 Stars

Swing shift was one of my favorite movies about WWII because it was
mostly about what was happening on the home front during that time. Most
WWII movies were about the military battles or what was happening
in Europe or in the far east.

Movie Review: Swing Shift
Summary: 4 Stars

Was looking for movies with Goldie in them and this is a good movie.

Movie Review: WWII Homefront Movie
Summary: 3 Stars

This movie looks at the "Rosie the Riveter" phenomena of World War II, in which women stepped in take over the assembly lines of factories which desperately needed manpower. Goldie Hawn plays one of these women while Kurt Russell plays a coworker who winds up seducing her.

I like both of these actors but this film wasn't a good vehicle for them. The story is a good one but not suited to Hawn, who seems to do her best in slapstick comedy roles. A good movie, but not one I think I will go out of my way to see again.
