Rating: - A film I always enjoyed-Disney fan of course SPOILERS
I remember watching this film on TV when I was a kid.
In the 1990's I grabbed it the minute it was released on video tape.
Where the heck is the DVD of this for Disney/Disneyland fans?
The first film at Disneyland.
Story a simple 1960's film. I liked Suzanne's character.
Interesting to see old casinos.
Disneyland fan I am seeing the park in color early 1960's is great. Monorail & Matterhorn. Incorrect shots-getting ... Read More
Rating: - Needs to be on DVD with Bonus Features!
Funny movie, Claire Wilcox is an adorable foil to Tony Curtis' jet setting kidless batchelor. The bathroom scene is hilarious. This movie is especially great if you're a fan of early Disneyland as there is a good 15+ minutes of footage at the climax of the movie.

Neatly directed by the extremely competent and talented Norman Jewison, ... Read More
Rating: - Fun and Heartwarming
Like the other reviewers, I must say this is one FUN old movie. It is a throw back to the early 60's - Between the Las Vegas setting and Disneyland settings...who could resist. And the cast has so many wonderful character actors. This is a definite win! Where is the DVD????
