      Meyer Levin (Patterson Murphy) Esquire Magazine Another one of those excessively carpentered vehicles in which a vast structure is built to hold up a slipping star. Apr 23, 2020 Full Review Ann Ross Maclean's Magazine Kid Millions is better than Roman Scandals and almost as good as The Kid From Spain - which this reviewer saw twice, then went to see again. Oct 2, 2019 Full Review Helen Brown Norden Vanity Fair Eddie Cantor manages to be pretty funny, though practically smothered in moth-eaten jokes. The real hit of the picture, however, is Ethel Merman. Jun 7, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member Corny corny jokes but catchy film improves with viewings - not sure why, but music good and Nicholas Brothers so talented - young here. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member A delightful, pre-code, 1930s musical comedy. Big musical production numbers and catchy 1930s tunes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member The best musical movie ever made! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Elaborate, enjoyable Eddie Cantor musical with a Technicolor finale. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member I've been a serious Eddie Cantor fan for as long as I can remember. Sorry to see that Flixter does not have his complete filmography listed. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
