    As a huge "I Love Lucy" fan, I found that this movie didn't live up to their chemistry in the show. It was funny and a cute movie, but in comparison, the show is hard to beat!

    A fun film to watch, and it's great to have Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz together in a feature length movie. The situations are amusing, and it's well written. It's an ideal movie for the two stars. Well produced and very entertaining.

    I love old-er films. Lucille Ball is just amazing. This movie was okay at the start but it got funnier and funnier the further it went into the story. Their are some parts I am still laughing about, in this movie. Very good. Funny. Classic(:

    This was on AMC last night and on a whim we watched it and it was really cute. I love Lucy!

    Funny, funny, funny! A simple, clean comedy that is worth watching at any age. Forget the date the movie came out, this one is good in today's standards.

    How funny is this movie you asked? VERY FUNNY.

    And with Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz behind the wheel,what could be more hilarious? This was a very funny movie..old-fashioned comedy starring America's favorite red-head LUCY!!!

    Directed by the great Vincente Minnelli,who was known for his musicals,had a great flair for slapstick comedy!
