Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Andy Howlett We've been fans of MGM musicals for many years, but somehow we never got around to watching this. I'm afraid we were left wondering what went wrong, as it is a long way from MGM's best. The first half hour contains a far-too-long (and not very good) dance sequence and a lot of poor dialogue. Then the film sinks into a rather sour flavour and the second-rate song and dance routines do little to lift the mood. The stand-out segment (sadly much too short) is Kelly's 'I like Myself' on roller skates, which is a classic warm & happy MGM number with glorious, flowing music and lush orchestration. There is a happy ending, but not before a rather depressing TV show scene. I think this story would have been far better as a non-musical drama, as the bitter taste and social comment does not lend itself to the classic MGM musical style. It pains me to give MGM such a low score, but it's a 4 from me.

theoneheart Really enjoyed 'It's Always Fair Weather' despite not being a big fan of musicals. A great cast offered an uplifting story with enjoyable music and wonderful dance scenes. It's always good when a film exceeds your expectations. Dolores Gray gave an inspired performance as a TV Host. Everyone played their part. Gene Kelly displayed his usual dance talent with adequate acting. Cyd Charisse had some great scenes. Dan Dailey and Michael Kidd more than held up their part. The film is well grounded spiced with hope and dreams. If you enjoy musicals, you will almost certainly enjoy this. The choreography is great. The music is fun. Enjoy the show!

cocomariev "It's Always Fair Weather" is based on three GI's who are returning home after WWII. After everything that they have gone through, the three friends are certain that they will remain friends forever. Before going on their merry ways, they promise to reunite in ten years at the exact bar that they are at. The bartender who works there disagrees and comments that they won't even remember each other and a bet is made. Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly present a great montage sequence following this scene. The montage highlights the important events during this time and I was able to see how each character differed from the others. I really enjoyed the dance sequences and thought that all three actors did a great job throughout the film. I've never really invested enough time into musicals so I'm not able to compare it too specifically, but it did remind me of 'Singing in the Rain.' It was a playful musical that was easy to like. I thought Gene Kelly, Dan Dailey, and Michael Kidd did a great job on acting. I thought Gene Kelly did a fabulous job on the dancing. I noticed that there were some references to television at the time, and it's competition with film. I found it funny that it poked fun at the television industry, I thought that was really interesting. I do think that the musical was too easy to follow and rather predictable. It wasn't hard for me to keep focused, but I wish that it hasn't so simple. I liked that there was a nice balance between dancing and the singing, it wasn't overbearing. Overall, this musical was enjoyable and entertaining, but not excellent. It was a bit too simple for me. If you aren't too familiar with musicals however, I do recommend seeing this because there is the perfect amount of dancing and singing without getting obnoxious.

cking-37-372041 **Spoiler alert*** This movie is hilarious and fun. The only part of this film I did not enjoy was the singing spectacle showcased at the very beginning of this film. It occurs after one of the characters learns his lover and the girl he planned on marrying has moved on to a different guy upon his return from the war. It was awkward, confusing and annoying watching the silliness of this scene. After this horrible scene is finished the movie begins to strengthen with a plot and is easier on the eyes. It's Always Fair Weather, is a classic example of Hollywood cinema. It showcased comedy, drama and in a way that one from the audience could actually see happening in their own life. A quick recap of the plot shows three soldiers who are the best of friends return to the states from war to separate and begin living their lives in the United States. After a serious discussion with the bartender the friends make a pack that they will still be friends in ten years, and will return to the bar to prove the bartender wrong in ten years. Ten years pass and the friends keep their pact, but quickly realize they are no longer the same people. It becomes very entertaining to watch each friend sing about how horrible their friends are, and how they wish they were somewhere else. Drama soon unfolds as a shows writer attempts to bring these guys together while under the impression they are all still friends. This soon proves catastrophic and almost unimaginable, but yet it happens. The show ends in an unforeseeable climax keeping the suspense and action unbearable and provides a small love story. Overall this movie has a great theme and is hilarious to watch. I would recommend this movie to anyone looking for a great laugh that also enjoys musicals.
