10/10

The newlyweds refuse the help of their families as they fight for it themselves, ladies and gentlemen, from here it degenerated into a very predictable marital comedy. Andrew Tombes 'short role is ridiculous: no other actor has expressed frustrated frustration better than the bald Tombes. (Edgar Kennedy's 'slow motion' conveyed a slightly different emotion.) After Tombes comes off the screen, this film quickly goes downhill. Herman Bing and the great Edward Brophy are welcome, but neither is to the usual high standard. I will rate this film only 10 out of 10.
