7/10
Non-review, sort of.
28 January 2006
I am not too sure how one could review a film like 'That's Entertainment, but I'll try. This is a collection of scenes from famous MGM musicals. This looked to be almost the final kick the sand-in-the-face for MGM, for as soon as Liza, Frank, Gene and company finished up their scenes, BOOM! Down came all the backlots to make way for apartments! Anyways, to the movies. It's really hard to say, 'Oh this is missing, and what about that movie?" because I wonder if those scenes were covered in TE 2 and TE3. But OK, the stuff that IS there, is great. I wasn't really blown away from anything, as I am catching up on all my movies that are shown here, but I am not REALLY looking forward to seeing any Esther Williams musicals, and I REALLY need to see High Society. Finally. Best musical scene from a MGM musical? Poo poo on the final ballet number in American In Paris! Give me Gene Kelly stomping in rain puddles any day!
