CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

edwagreen Light fanfare with Bette Grable, Don Ameche, Bob Cummings, and Carol Landis in a fun-filled film.The Technicolor by the always reliable Natalie Kalmus in really great here.We never get tired of plots dealing with 3 ladies trying to get rich guys for themselves. This picture isn't How to Marry a Millionaire (1953) but it's enjoyable along with the marvelous dancing and singing.As the aunt, Charlotte Greenwood joins in the fun. Did anyone notice how depressed Carol Landis looked? She would kill herself 7 years later.Jack Haley, as the snooping butler, is a joy to watch. He provides an excellent foil to Miss Greenwood.

moonspinner55 Remake of 1938's "Three Blind Mice", its hoary plot reworked several times since, has two waitressing sisters and their wiseacre aunt taking a $4000 inheritance all the way to Miami where they plan to land rich husbands. Jovial, breezy, tuneful film is a bit short-changed on male charisma (the original had Joel McCrea and David Niven--here we get Bob Cummings and Don Ameche, hardly a fair trade-off!). Still, Betty Grable is perky, Carole Landis is subdued and lovely, and Charlotte Greenwood is a stitch as Aunt Susan (she's like Ray Bolger in drag--and her pairing with bellhop Jack Haley is certainly the oddest in the film). The songs are good (as long as Ameche isn't singing them) and the photography and intermittent location shooting are colorful. Predictable but cozy, plus there's a wonderfully flamboyant xylophone player, and Grable has a sensational dancing sequence at her engagement party. Lots of fun! *** from ****

bkoganbing Betty Grable, Carole Landis, and Charlotte Greenwood, two sisters and their aunt work as carhops in a drive-up Texas diner and they get a letter from a lawyer. Another relative has up and died and left the family fortune to them. But after the court and Uncle Sam have taken their share, it's only several thousand apiece. Betty has her sights set on landing a millionaire husband as any bright girl in that era would. Landis and Greenwood don't need much convincing to pool their resources and go to Miami and hang out where the millionaires do. Betty pretends to be a millionaire heiress herself with Landis as a secretary and Greenwood her maid.I shouldn't say too much more, but as this was a film of pure escapism with happy endings required, you should be able to figure out the rest. The men sure liked looking at Grable and Landis and the women dreamed of being in their place, courted by the likes of Don Ameche and Bob Cummings.Songwriting team of Ralph Rainger and Leo Robin contributed a good score that showcases the considerable musical talents of Ameche, Grable, Greenwood and Jack Haley who plays a suspicious waiter at the resort the girls are staying at. What I don't understand is that the title of the film is the title of a very big hit song from the Thirties and it is only used under the title credits and as background. Of course it wasn't written by Robin and Rainger, and maybe that was the reason, they didn't want their music competing with an established tune.Even with world war once again breaking out in Europe, Africa, and Asia, audiences still loved this escapist stuff. Films like this are what made Betty Grable the GIs number one pin-up girl. This is what the GIs loved as Robert Strauss from Stalag 17 would so testify. After all, Animal did say he saw all her films on multiple occasions.If he did, he was well pleased with Moon Over Miami.

mwerner This is one of my favorite movies, with the singing and dancing of one of my favorites, Charlotte Greenwood, and the Nicholas Brothers, also favorites of mine. The story is light and fluffy, and that's why I like watching movies; I want to be entertained, not so much to think! It's a little zany with the bellman and the plot to snare a rich hubby, and the sister posing as the secretary really in love with the rich guy, and the sister who's supposed to marry the rich guy really loving the ne'er do well friend. This story has a happy ending, just the way I like it! cosie3
