GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

SimonJack This is a masterful comedy based on implication, insinuation and presumption. "That Funny Feeling" is a thinking person's comedy. It's one of the best films of all time for use of innuendo to create riotously funny scenes. The film has a good dose of witty lines – many from the supporting cast. With the leads, the comedy relies more on the unspoken word, the implied – discussions misunderstood by characters. Then, it has resulting physical mishaps and antics. And, the mishaps alone are riotous. Those with their thinking caps on should be able to catch all of this.Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee had been married four years in 1965. They were heartthrobs of the teen set since the late 1950s. They were a dream couple with the dream wedding. Both were rising stars and had received Golden Globes as most promising newcomers. Darin also received an Oscar nomination for his role in "Captain Newman, M.D." And Darin was a super talented singer and musician. Darin and Dee's marriage may have been ideal at the start, but it ended in 1967. After that, their careers were cut short. He died after a second surgery on a heart weakened by rheumatoid fever as a child. That was in 1973 when he was just 37 years old. Her career took a nosedive after their 1967 divorce, and she suffered from anorexia, alcoholism and depression. She died at just 62 years of age from kidney disease.In this movie, they meet under hilarious circumstances in the opening scene. Darin plays Tom Milford and Dee plays Joan Howell. The funniest role in the entire film is that of Leo G. Carroll who plays Mr. O'Shea. He is the proprietor of an upscale Manhattan pawnshop and does a decent job with a modest Irish accent. I laughed so hard at the three scenes he is in that I had to stop the DVD and replay those parts a few times. The humor is pure innuendo from misunderstanding discussions and from wrong presumptions. James Westerfield plays police officer Brokaw in a few scenes. He has some witty lines as well as innuendo. And, Robert Strauss and Ben Lessy are riotous as bartenders who overhear Tom and Joan's conversations and misunderstand or presume wrongly what they are talking about. Lots more laughter here. Nita Talbot plays Joan's roommate, Audrey; and Larry Storch plays their neighbor and friend, Luther. Again, both have scenes with innuendo as well as some very funny lines. Donald O'Connor is Tom's friend and boss, Harvey Granson, who is a buffer for much of the comedy.This is a squeaky clean adult movie that the whole family may watch, though younger members will miss much of the comedy. The innuendo requires a little knowledge and/or familiarity with real adult life. Darin sings the title song for the movie as well. From two lives that had such difficult upbringing and tragic ends, came some very good wholesome entertainment. Bobby Darin's songs likely will last for many generations. For now and the future, the public has this and some other good films to enjoy from both stars. 'That Funny Feeling" is a grand piece of entertainment that may preserve the only happy few years of the lives of Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee.Following are some samples of funny dialog and hilarious scenarios in this movie. Joan, "I knew what I was doing was wrong, but my motives were good."Two police officers are outside a fire escape window before the police raid the apartment. Tom and Joan are arguing and Audrey is sitting on the bed playing solitaire. First officer, "Can you hear what he's saying?" Second officer, "He seems disappointed because she didn't make him a duck dinner." First officer, "What about the other one that's playing cards on the bed?" Second officer, "I'm still workin' on the duck dinner."O'Shea is sitting at the bar, talking with the two bartenders. "Why, only this week, mind you, a mere wisp of a child with the bloom of innocence still on her cheeks, comes into the place, and would you believe it? Some dirty dog of a scoundrel, some mean, low-down, cheap, conniving, two-faced, lecherous snake in the grass, why …." He stops when he sees Tom and Joan come into the bar. She sits on a bar stool and as Tom is about to sit down, O'Shea walks over to him, taps him on the shoulder, and when Tom faces him, O'Shea socks him and knocks him out. He steps over Tom and walks away, muttering, "You and your English tailoring."Main bartender (Robert Strauss), "You know somethin', Charlie. When you got her around you don't need television."

hosannah8 I am so tired of violet, sexually explicit movies that if you took out all the bad language there would be no dialogue: this one is a delight. Yes it is silly, but such a nice change of pace.There is a great deal of tongue and cheek humor from the 50's and 60's that younger generations might not understand, their loss.It is nice to go back to a kind and gentler time.I read some of the negative reviews about Sandra Dee, but I could name at least a score of current actresses from the same mold, but jaded by the current definition of talent that are popular but so much worse as actresses.If you want something light and fun, it this a great film.

moonspinner55 Sandra Dee manages to dress exquisitely and take taxis all around New York City despite working as an out-call maid who has so little money she's forced to live in a cramped hovel with a girl roommate. But no matter. She meets eligible publishing magnate Bobby Darin and temporarily takes over an absentee client's bachelor pad as a front for her residence. The not-so-hilarious catch is: it's Darin's apartment. Tepid bedroom-comedy laden with misunderstandings and innuendo. Dee, making herself to home in Darin's swinging pad, actually manages to find bubble bath in his bathroom, while he--going along with her ruse--impersonates an interior decorator! A few funny moments (Darin, in his boxer shorts, causing a scene outside a pay phone; two nosy bartenders gossiping like sisters on the job) cannot compensate for an extremely thin screenplay by David R. Schwartz (working from Norman Barasch and Carroll Moore's story), which plays like third-rate Hudson & Day. *1/2 from ****

Noirdame79 I don't for the life of me understand why critics have been so negative toward this film. It is a jewel of a movie, a romantic comedy that succeeds in both areas.This was the last film that the late former married couple, Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin made together, and it is one of their best.Joan Howell (Dee, adorable as always) is a struggling actress who works as a maid-for-hire. Tom Milford (Darin, handsome and charming)is a playboy business man. They seem to have little in common, except for the fact that Joan cleans his apartment (of which they are both unaware). After several run-ins (literally) the pair decide to go on a date. Humilated at the thought of taking him back to her cramped apartment which she shares with her wisecracking roommate, Audrey (the hilarious Nita Talbot), she decides to pretend that the apartment she is cleaning is her place, but what she doesn't realize is that it is Tom's apartment!!! Things escalate from there as a bewildered Tom goes along with her, all the while driving his poor harassed boss Harvey Granson (the one and only Donald O'Connor)insane, as he desperately wants to retrieve his priceless (but ugly) paintings from Tom's home. Of course, Joan discovers his deception and wants to get even, although she has fallen in love with him, and he has fallen in love with her. Wonderfully comedic complications and consequences take place.Larry Storch is priceless as Joan and Audrey's scrappy neighbor Luther, and Leo G. Carroll has a nice role as the owner of a pawnshop. James Westerfield nearly steals the show as a cop that Tom continually runs into, Robert Strauss and Ben Lessy are hysterical as two middle-aged bartenders with very vast imaginations, and Reta Shaw has a funny little bit as a miffed old lady.All in all, irresistible romantic fun!!! The title tune alone (written and performed by Darin) is in a class all by itself. Tons of fun.
