Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
The two leading players seem to have a swell time throughout.

fresh:
Surprisingly successful sequel to the delightful, Dashiell Hammett-based comedy-mystery, The Thin Man, with Powell and Loy as charmingly witty as ever.

fresh:
If After the Thin Man is not quite the delight The Thin Man was, it is, at the very least, one of the most urbane comedies of the season.

fresh:
The mystery elements amount to much less than Powell and Loy's effervescent interplay as the movies' most happily married couple.
