Audience Reviews for It's Always Fair Weather

  • Jan 01, 2020
    The musical numbers are the kind of goofy fun you'd expect and yet they are surrounded by a story that's more melancholy and honest than most musicals of the era. The movie balances these two elements rather well due to the strength of Comden and Green's screenplay.

    A disappointment. Ordinary musical from the end period of the great MGM muscials. Gene's number on roller skates is memorable but everything else is just so much filler.

    Gene Kelly is great at being an adorable cad who has a thousand times more potential than he expends. I think that is because he is/was one in real life. It's got a little more of an edge than usual MGM tapdancing spectacles and I think they made a little bit more of a effort in attaining originality in the dance numbers - with the garbage can pails and the ROLLERSKATES (ohh my gosh). I only wish Cyd Charisse had danced in more numbers. I still say she and Gene Kelly have the best dancing chemistry - she's such a gazelle and he's such a kloofing klomphing dreamboat. The ending was a dream. I love that these movies mandatorily have to end happily.
