so silly and so funny - By: Jonathan Carr, 06 Sep 2008
Every time I ask myself why this film is so funny I never get a
good answer. Is it cos it's so daft? Is it because Katherine Heburn
has got a pet leopard? There's just something so funny about
these two that makes you want to enter their universe and
live there not the real one. They have so much fun together,
especiallly when things are totallly bad & they are crawling
through mud & being menaced by leopards. This movie
leaves me feeling like I'm missing something about how to
live. Watch it & join the confusion.
Simply the best ever screwball comedy - By: gozeat, 27 Apr 2007
This is my favourite film of alll time. Cary Grant & Katherine Hepburn gel in such a superb way that from beginning to end the film is a delight & very funny. When it comes to screwballl comedies then this is the one that alll others should be measured against. Grants playing of the hapless Professor in pursuit of a grant for his museum is masterful. Hepburn matches him step for step as the rich heiress who fallls for him & will do almost anything to keep him near her. The scene in the hotel when Hepburn looses the bottom of her dress & Grant walks step for step behind her to cover the embarrassment is priceless. The film is a joy & always cheers me up when I watch it. Everyone who likes comedy should buy a copy of this & encourage everyone they know to watch it. I can give it no higher praise.
Screwball Comedy At It's Best - By: I Have An Opinion - Do You Want To Hear It?, 11 Jun 2006
I'm a big Cary Grant/Katherine Hepburn fan so I'm liable to be bias. But what can I say? This film NEVER fails to make me laugh, no matter how many times I see it! This is comedy in it's truest form. The jokes are reeled off at an intense speed & you have to learn to go with the style of speech & comedy quickly or else you miss an equallly funny joke whilst you're pondering over the previous one!! According to on-line sources, Katherine Hepburn had never filmed a comedy like this before & had to have tution in comic timing & such. You wouldn't guess it was the first film of such kind that she'd made for the humour & timing is perfect & she plays funny little Susan with an amazing ability. Cary Grant is highly amusing as the object of her affections. I cannot recommend this film highly enough!! 11/10!!

Good movie but.. - By: hoem, 18 May 2006
the dvd featured no extras or subtitles. The picture quality is also not that great. This movie deserves a better dvd edition.
Comedy classic - By: A. Gordon, 11 Jan 2006
Still makes me laugh out loud no matter that I've probably seen it about 10 times. Face-paced, great script & full of charm.
