Movie Reviews of The Five Pennies

Movie Review: Good musical
Summary: 5 Stars

Danny Kaye in one of his less hectic roles. Based on the life of Red Nichols a band leader from the 30's and 40's. I don't know how much of the story is accurate but it is fun to watch and there is lots of great music in it. I bought the album years ago and listened to it often so I was glad to be able to get the film and watch it again.

If you like music and biography give it a try you will not be unhappy.

Movie Review: Best Movie EVER
Summary: 5 Stars

I first saw this movie as a child. I loved it then. I rediscovered it as an adult and was thrilled to find it on DVD. I have bought copies for myself, friends, and my mom. All have enjoyed it. It is a tear jerker, so if you need to have a good cry, this is your movie. One of the best parts is Danny Kaye and Louis Armstrong doing "When the Saints Go Marching In". Gives you chills.

Movie Review: One of Danny Kaye's finest performances
Summary: 5 Stars

I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a really good film. Whether you are a Danny Kaye fan or not this movie will make you laugh and cry and feel pretty good when you're finished watching it. The music is fantastic and the performances of the actors is superb. I would recommend this movie to anyone who asks.

Movie Review: I laughed and cried
Summary: 5 Stars

This is one movie that I can watch over and over. It can be classified as both a comedy and a drama. I never fail to cry when the little girl dismisses her dad. And, I laugh at all of the antics that Danny Kaye pulls to get his daughter to do her physical therapy. The music is great - it's great to see Louis Armstrong.

Movie Review: A nice make you feel good movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

I LOVED it!

It's a great way to learn more about the Jazz music of the past, find out about some of the great bandleaders and how they came about.

And this is one of those make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside movies. Great actors, great story, well worth watching over and over.
