Remember, this isn't one of those good, bad movies such as Rock 'n' Roll High School -- it's a bad, bad movie.

Audience Reviews for Happy Birthday, Gemini

Apr 09, 2011

Great performers Madeline Kahn and Rita Moreno are trapped in this loud vulgar stupid movie based on what must have been a much better stage play. Location filming in Philadelphia is wasted with some terrific shot of the city at the beginning but then the rest is all set in backyards that could be anywhere. A lost opportunity.
