...a sluggish and mostly underwhelming romantic comedy...

The picture already seems like last year's movie, and in a way it is. The match-making plot is taken from an earlier housingshortage comedy called The More The Merrier. Even Cary Grant is a disappointment.

At 62, Cary Grant made his last film in this amiable comedy, a loose, weaker remake of George Stevens' 1943 The More the Merrier.

Well what a great way to call it a career for Cary Grant. This movie was hilarious and the scenes in the apartment are the best in my opinion. Samantha Eggar and Jim Hutton were good as well. I really enjoyed the story and the chemistry between Hutton and Eggar. Now all that's left is for me to watch Carys First Movie. Tim Treakle

Cary Grant is charming as ever even in his later years. The film, however, isn’t as good as I expected. I found the plot uninteresting and the acting of the other actors mediocre.

The last film to ever star Cary Grant. It’s a very standard Romcom but the cast shine with their chemistry
