Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
mark.waltz This ridiculous B comedy with songs from Universal is loaded with great character performers but has the most absurd of premises for a conflict. Nightclub singer wannabee Jane Frazee can't get a job simply because she doesn't have a name. All of a sudden, there's a headline in the paper indicating that she's married to a wealthy playboy (Robert Paige), all a ploy for him to get out of an unwanted engagement. His rich aunt Elizabeth Patterson wants the marriage ended before it has even begun. Her bombastic father, Eugene Palette, shows up to cause more havoc, leading to Paige to suggest marriage for real, but are his intentions for real?At a short hour, this was a standard plot for B musicals at Universal, usually with the Andrews Sisters playing themselves and helping the love interests deal with interfering relatives or unwanted suitors. They're not in this one (obviously busy in another film with basically the same plot) but the supporting cast is filled with funny character actors doing basically the same thing. Maude Eburne is hysterical as a prickly, interfering landlady, while Charles Coleman gets laughs as Paige's droll Butler. Mediocre songs sung by the pretty Frazee don't sound as good coming out of her as they normally do, giving issues to the sound department, not her talent.
