I'm usually a big fan of old movies, and I generally like screwball comedies like The Marx Brothers but this was just annoying from start to finish. I actually have a headache after watching it all the way through.
Did anyone else feel this way?
no
sharecompletely, i was so disappointed, cary grant's acting was disappointing to say the least and the actual characters themselves were irritating, i found it so boring and annoying, i've been trying to watch this movie for the past two days, i still haven't finished, don't know if i should finish or not, i feel like i wasted a lot of my time, but i want to have finished it since i already wasted so much time watching an hour of it.
shareI can't believe you didn't like Cary Grant's acting. No one every complains about the job he did in this movie.
shareit could easily have been due to his annoying character but i guess it's down to personal preference :/

There are movies that I did not think were funny the first time that I saw them that later became favorite movies of mine.A lot of people, including myself, think that this is a great movie. I hope you will try it again in a few years. A couple of beers might get you in the right mood.For easy markup in Firefox & Opera, see http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/42255 share
Yes! And audiences felt the same way in 1938.
shareI liked this movie, but can kind of see why you would feel this way. There are multiples scenes where everyone seems to be talking at once, especially during the jail scene.
Son, you got a panty on your head.
Yep, i would like to see this movie remade with sex of characters reversed... its so goddman sexist and annoying... and im a male...

I used to love it, but watching it recently, I found Katharine Hepburn very annoying it. I think Charlie Ruggles and May Robson were the best thing about the movie...they DID make me laugh.
shareYou're sooo annoying!
