Feels like Fred MacMurray has done too many screwball comedies in his career already. So much that it felt like he was in autopilot for Standing Room Only (1944). He's a constant professional, so that's not necessarily a bad thing, but I've seen more inspired performances. This does have a really good cast to help the tired formula, and there are genuine funny scenarios, so a good view regardless of it's less fresh approach.
