5.0 out of 5 stars Pick a finger, 26 Aug 2008

By	bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

A married scientist (Cary Grant) is trying to prefect a supplement that will make people feel younger. Unknown to anyone, an escapee chimp prefects the formula by accident. The concoction is placed in the bottles water dispenser. From there it is first assimilated by the scientist who then dispenses with his glasses, obtains a racy car and the boss's secretary (Marilyn Monroe). Later experiments include the wife (Ginger Rogers) as the genuine pig. Eventually, a hatchet job peruses and the movie gets even stranger.

This is a very busy movie with no down time. There is lots of noise and action. You will not have to worry about falling asleep.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very funny businesss, 7 Mar 2008

By	J. Newson (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was initially put off by the title, but the film turned out to be very funny and very silly. Cary Grant and Ginger Rogers are very good and when they play the roles of children they do so brilliantly. It's a fun, watchable film. Marilyn Monroe is not one of the leads and is pretty terrible in this part. Not sure sure her picture is on the DVD cover.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hysterical 15 year old!, 15 April 2009

By	C. Fontenelle (Essex, England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have not heard my 15 year old son laugh as much as he did when we watched this film together. The story line is quite simplistic but the comedic timing of all the actors (including the chimp) are spot on. An ideal family movie! The DVD cover does not do the film justice - Marilyn Monroe only has a small part as a secretary and shouldn't really be used to sell the film. It wouldn't have made my son want to watch it.
