Movie Reviews of Thoroughly Modern Millie
Movie Review: Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
I haven't enjoyed a movie more in a long time than watching "Thoroughly Modern Millie." Julie Andrews was just wonderful in this film as well as Mary Tyler Moore with the added bonus of Carol Channing playing Muzzy. I was browsing on amazon for any Julie Andrews movies and this gem came up. I had never seen or heard of this film, and after watching it was not dissapointed!
Set in the "Roaring 20's", Millie (Julie Andrews) whom is looking for a husband Trevor Graydon (played by John Gavin) goes and lives in New York city at an all girls boarding house run by Mrs. Meers (Beatrice Lillie) a front-lady for an oriental white slavery ring. Miss Dorothy (Mary Tyler Moore) leaves home to find "her way in the world" also comes to New York city and meets Millie at the same boarding house. The two girls together create quite a pair in their zany, wacky ways in this madcap of a movie. The antics that happen will leave you falling off the couch with laughter!
This is a movie that the entire family would enjoy. It is funny, heart-warming, suspenseful, and thrilling. I would encourage anybody who wants clean, quality entertainment in their home to purchase a copy for their DVD library. It's a classic! Format: Color, Widescreen, 2hrs 32 min.

Summary of Thoroughly Modern Millie
Julie Andrews is at her peak of adorability in this enjoyable (and surprisingly sarcastic) spoof of the 1920s. It has every trick: occasional silent-movie intertitles, flapper lingo ("Oh, banana oil"), and a laughable plot about women being sold into white slavery by the scheming manageress (splendid Beatrice Lillie) of a Hotel for Ladies, aided by a cabal of wicked Chinese. (The stereotypes are bearable only if you remember this is a spoof of silent movie melodrama.) Even with able support from Mary Tyler Moore and James Fox, this is Julie's show; she plays to the camera with the collusion of director George Roy Hill, who's clearly smitten with her silly streak. The movie has an annoying tendency to spend time on musical numbers--a Jewish wedding, a vaudeville act--that don't serve the plot. A future Broadway musical would create a new score, except for the delightfully catchy title tune. --Robert HortonMusicals & Performing Arts DVD Video
