Negative Positive
Title: Not as good of a movie as you might think.
Review: A Frank Capra film, with a cast of Jimmy Stewart and Lionel Barrymore? How could a movie like this go wrong? Well, you might be surprised.I watched You Can't Take It With You on one of our family nights in our den. We popped the movie in, and figured on enjoying an evening of cinematic enjoyment comparable to It's A Wonderful Life. By the end of the movie, my opinion had changed.Basically, besides the love story between Stewart's character, which is almost a side plot, the movie is about a pack of pirates who don't do anything...they just stay at home and lie around! Jimmy Stewart is pretty much the only thing that held this movie together for me, and the only reason that I finished the movie is that I hate to leave a movie started, but not finished.Watch this movie only if you have some time, and can stand to be a little bored, or if you, like me, hadn't ever seen Lionel Barrymore in a movie as a GOOD guy.
Is the review positive or negative?
