Movie Info
When David Smith (Robert Montgomery) concedes to his wife, Ann (Carole Lombard), that he's not quite satisfied with their marriage, the couple's relationship spins into disarray. In the wake of David's confession, Ann learns that because of a legal snafu, they're not actually married. Ann uses her freedom to try the dating market, where she's courted by Jeff Custer (Gene Raymond), one of David's professional colleagues. David's attempts to win her back lead to several humorous situations.

Jul 08, 2012A married couple that enjoys playful sparring with one another venture into deep water when they discover a bureaucratic oversight has rendered them not married. What's glib here is what's not said by the principals, Lombard and Montgomery, fully adapting to Hitch's trick of conveying thoughts with a glance. Unfortunately one wishes for more oomph, script-wise. Lombard, as ever, is effervescence itself.Kevin M. W Super Reviewer

May 04, 2011The only way I can rationalize the steaming pile of shit that is known as Mr. & Mrs. Smith was that Alfred Hitchcock had no idea what to do for his next movie or he needed to make a really big step back before taking many steps forward in the coming years. I love screwball comedies from this era but Mr. & Mrs. Smith is disappointing. Compound the fact that Hitchcock made it (comedy wasn't his specialty admittedly) and you're talking a borderline crime against humanity. Carole Lombard was admittedly beautiful but crazy as a shithouse rat to the point where I almost shut this down in the first half hour. I was filled with rage at how shitty the characters were and how the whole resolution was tacked on at the very end. I think I actually would've been happier if one of them died at the end. Watch with e x t r e m e caution and incredibly low expectations. Mr. & Mrs. Smith had a few funny moments but they didn't outweigh the painful and embarrassing ones.Michael G Super Reviewer

Sep 05, 2010Forget that stupid movie with Jolie and Pitt, this is the real Mr. & Mrs. Smith! Hitchcock, unlikely enough, brings us a romantic comedy! It's really enjoyable, I liked it.Aj V Super Reviewer

Apr 29, 2010Just a really odd movie for Hitchcock to do. It isnât all that bad, itâs obviously shot well, itâs just really mediocre. The plot is really flat and unoriginal, itâs a sub-par attempt at screwball comedy. None of the performances are all that noteworthy, but none are bad. Itâs probably the lowest point in Hitchcockâs career.Conner R Super Reviewer
