Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Konterr Brilliant and touching

Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

dougdoepke First part is full of bouncy fun as virginal Eileen (Fonda) struggles with raging hormones vs. traditional morality. Cut loose from her fiancée and roaming in New York, she and Mike (Taylor) meet cute on a bus and then try to handle their mutual attraction without admitting it. Meanwhile her pilot brother Adam (Robertson) tries to juggle a planned tryst with the luscious Mona (Morrow) with an ornery flight schedule, adding amusing results to the mix. This first part is fast-moving, clever, and adorned with many city backdrops. Then, however, things slow down in bumpy fashion once mistaken identities are added to the mix; at the same time, talk inside a single apartment set takes over.Note how the first part especially is studded with 1960's innuendo as 1934's Production Code censorship weakens. It's like the movie is flexing naughty muscles following a long 30-year jail term. Moreover, popular culture too is undergoing a similar sexual release, one soon to burst forth in a free-wheeling counter-culture. Certainly, Fonda has never been more radiant, while her spark and bounce carry the movie's main parts. To me, however, Taylor's casting as her chief romantic interest results in an awkward blend. He does his best in a farcical role, but lacks the light touch. Then too, his highly mature facial features and short stature just don't look like a maiden's dream, particularly for the bubbly Eileen. No wonder the fine dramatic actor went on to specialize in action features. On the other hand, Robertson, as Eileen's calculating brother, adds a note of beleaguered sanity to the zany occurrences, while Culp revels in the role of our girl's giddy fiancée.All in all, the movie's crux may be dated, but the mix is generally amusing; at the same time, Fonda appears to be having genuine good time.

SnoopyStyle Adam Tyler (Cliff Robertson) is a pilot working under Chief Pilot Drysdale (Jim Backus). His sister Eileen Tyler (Jane Fonda) is recovering after breaking up with boyfriend Russ Wilson (Robert Culp) from a rich family. She leaves home in Albany and surprises Adam in New York with a visit. The 23 year old virgin wonders if she is suppose to sleep with men after dating a certain amount of time. Adam insists that he doesn't sleep around but that's not the case. His latest partner is Mona Harris (Jo Morrow). Eileen meets Mike Mitchell (Rod Taylor) getting stuck together on a crowded bus.This is definitely a single gal from another era. Jane Fonda shows some real charm. The first pin isn't that funny but the second time is hilarious. Cliff Robertson and Jo Morrow are almost secondary on their side of the movie as Fonda outshines them all. She's in her mid 20's and starts her rise. It would have been nice for her to have a more animated partner.

bex_disney I discovered this movie because of Cliff Robertson. I didn't watch it then, but then when Rod Taylor passed away I rediscovered the film and had to see it. The first half of the film is like any other 1960s rom-com. It's cute, funny, etc etc. Then it takes a turn that was unexpected, but very good, about halfway through. Still it wasn't amazing or anything. While I was watching the last 20-30 minutes I was thinking about how I would write my review. BUT WAIT, there's more! ....The last 15 minutes of this movie are absolute PERFECTION! Just watch it. its amazing. Rod Taylor is great!

jmacpep This is a very clever movie and one of the best of the sixties. The point of the movie is that it was a period piece...that was the whole idea. People knew the world was changing. Sorry no cell phones. So ignore the reviews that suggest that this is somehow a problem. It is a fun, definitely not serious movie.Jane Fonda in perhaps her best acting role and probably the same can be said for Rod Taylor. Cliff Robertson is very funny and he is maybe the best part of it. Robert Culp does a stand up job playing the poor guy who is bound to get dumped. You know it is going to happen, but you still play along.
