Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
So arresting is Monroe's presence that when she's not on-screen, we wait impatiently, wondering, Where have you gone, Mrs. DiMaggio?

rotten:
Monroe flaunts her attributes too blatantly, and seems less human because of it, while George Axelrod's play, fresh and risque in the '50s, now appears a little obvious and over-plotted.
– Derek Adams,

rotten:
Although it was directed by Billy Wilder, this 1955 CinemaScope classic sometimes seems presided over by Frank Tashlin, with its satire of 50s puritanism and its use of wimpy Tom Ewell.

fresh:
What counts is that laughs come thick and fast, that the general entertainment is light and gay.

Despite the script's cleverness, the presence of Tom Ewell, who is a first rate comedian and Oscar Homolka, who has long been a first rate actor, the entire film continually misses fire and fizzles out, like defective fireworks.
