Sprightly Sturges comedy that while not being one of his celebrated films is still a little gem.

Short but sweet. I really enjoyed how this movie played out, with some heartfelt turns and nice character moments that made it feel a bit more Capra-esque than your typical Sturges. It doesn't really get too manic, and just has a pleasant vibe to it. I also appreciate that it doesn't torment the audience by dragging out the misunderstanding too much. Powell and Drew are terrific together, they make a charming couple. The ending is a bit predictable, but other moments aren't.

Not particularly funny. People getting food thrown at them doesn't do much for me. Constructed around a very uncomplicated premise, it succeeds mainly because of its likeability. Warm rather than maudlin, fuzzy instead of sharp as Sturges' best comedies. Heck, I'll go further than likeable: it's plain lovely.

Preston Sturges is mostly just no fun anymore. Contrived, not funny, and you can see the "surprise ending" coming a mile away

A little silly and predictable but still a lot of fun. Sturges was clearly still finding his way at times and this is a notch below his other work, but the leads are still enjoyable and the dialogue is pretty crisp.

Pleasant early Sturges comedy with a superb collection of minor characters.
