Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Rags and Red Bring A Lot Of Laughs
If you like old-fashioned corny humor you'll love this. I'm hesitant to give a movie this silly, corny and stupid eight stars but I had to because overall it was fun to watch and provided a number of genuine laughs. In fact, some of the scenes were downright hilarious. A lot of it is innocent old-time slapstick and, if it entertains, it did its job.

This was my first look at early Red Skelton films (I had only known him through his TV show) and it reminded of some Bob Hope films except ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - SKELTON AND RUTHERFORD FOREVER!!!
this is one of my favorite Red Skelton movies. I've always thought that he and Ann Rutherford were such a great couple! For a while now, I've thought that "Whistling in Brooklyn" is one of their best movies together!

Rags Ragland and Jean Rogers are also hilarious. At times, I even find Ragland funnier than Skelton. But my favorite is still Ann Rutherford--I've never seen her in such a role!

This movie is funny, cute, and you're sure to have a good time!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great comedy
Can't wait for the DVD version..This is a very funny movie by a comedian that perfected comedy on the screen...If you Love "RED" or if you've never seen one of his movie you will laugh out loud while watching.....Get the whole series...BARB



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This paper never had a constant reader.
Whistling In Brooklyn (1943) is Red's third outing as radio detective the Fox. This time he's mixed up with a villian named Constant Reader but still finds time to clown around with the Brooklyn Dodgers. You'll want to pay close attention to the umpire's calls when Red is at bat, especially ball 3.
Also involved is a lady reporter whose editor orders her to tag along on the honeymoon - the third attempt of Wally (Red) and Carol (Ann Rutherford) to marry in this series.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Fun Little Movie
I caught this on the late show when I was 13 and, while not the greatest movie in the world, it has always stayed with me. The comedy works, it has a few humorous Hitchcockian moments (particulary the scene with four characters hanging over an elevator shaft), and the climax is very reminescent of "The Naked Gun" (with Leslie Neilson). In fact, it could best be described as a poor man's "North by Northwest"...and I mean that as a compliment. And I'll dig any movie that has a villain calling ... Read More
