    I saw enough of this to make me realize...Lucille Ball is the most hysterical thing ever to come out of sitcoms, but she really needs to stay out of the movies. It's all lame for some reason on the "silver screen."

    I wouldn't exactly see it again, but it wasnt a bad movie. Lucy and Desi are who you think they would be, its hard to imagine them "acting" as anything else. This could be like a I Love Lucy prequel even. Cute, not-sitcom-y funny...works best when you just realize how life was back then and living in a trailer was actually LUXURIOUS and enticing.

    Famous red head at her best. This zany, screwball comedy is enjoyed by all ages. Very funny movie. Ricky and Lucy pose as a newlywed couple who decide to cross country pulling a trailer. The movie is loaded with mishaps, funny adventures and clean humor at it's best. Great old one.

    Just a good old fashioned comedy. Lots of laughs. Especially like the scene of the huge trailer being backed into a relatives driveway.

    I have LOVED this movie since I was 7-years-old. It is my absolute favorite Lucille Ball movie, and I make a point to watch it every summer.

    I couldn't stop laughing during this movie. And Lucy is at it again. She collects rocks and sticks them in the trailer.

    I'm a huge "I Love Lucy" fan, but this one isn't anything like the characters they played. Several friends of mine thought it was Lucy and Ricky Riccardo on vacation, and it wasn't. They weren't playing the "I Love Lucy" characters. Still this flick is worth watching, and it is good for a few laughs.

    It's a wonder I have not had to order another copy, I have watched this movie so often. Would have put "Forever Darling" on the list too, another Lucille Ball/Desi Arnaz movie, but, it was not on the list of choices.

    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!
