I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I think "She's Got Everything" is a pleasant little film. However, I also think it would have worked better had the film been allowed to take place a bit more slowly and naturally. As it was, it sure seemed rushed--and I guess that's because tit was a B-movie and they are only about an hour in length.The film begins with creditors descending on a mansion after the master dies. His daughter, Carol (Ann Sothern) doesn't realize he was heavily in debt but promises to go to work and try to pay off his debts. However, her conniving Aunt Jane (Helen Broderick) wants her to marry some rich guy instead. When Carol gets a job with a rich coffee tycoon, Fuller (Gene Raymond), Jane and her new partner (Victor Moore) are intent on getting the pair hitched--even if it means trying to use a hypnotist!This is a nice little comedy. However, the last five minutes seem like about 15 or more all condensed into five. After all, why would she be so angry with him even once she learns that her Aunt is the villain and why would she then instantly relent and marry him?! She comes off as a bit strange and the ending is good but way, way too rushed.

Ann Sothern stars in "She's Got Everything," a 1937 film also starring Gene Raymond (her frequent costar in those days), Helen Broderick, Victor Moore (a "horse broker," not a bookie), Billy Gilbert, and an uncredited but cheery Jack Carson.Sothern plays Carol Rogers, who thinks she's from a wealthy family. When her father dies, she finds out that all he's left her is debt. In fact, while she sleeps upstairs, his creditors are taking his furniture and anything else they can get their hands on. When she awakens, the only thing left in her room is her bed.Daddy's biggest creditor Waldo the bookie, has high hopes for Carol marrying a wealthy man from South America who is crazy about her. However, he's a miner, and Carol hates miners.Carol decides it's time she stood on her own two feet and went out and worked. Waldo has just the job, as secretary to a coffee mogul, Fuller Partridge (Raymond). When she arrives at his office, she finds out part of her job is as a coffee taster. She hates coffee. It makes her sick.Anything with Ann Sothern is worth seeing. Add the wonderful Helen Broderick as her aunt, and you should have a winner. Unfortunately both actresses are better than their material.The second part of this film has a lot of music in it, including a nice rendition of "It's Sleepy Time in Hawaii" by Sothern.Gene Raymond was an attractive man but not right for light comedy. Ann Sothern looks beautiful and is delightful, but overall the script is as thin as paper.

Ann Sothern plays an heiress who returns from a European trip to discover that her wealthy father has died and left her with enormous debts. She's determined to get a job to pay them off, and through a series of somewhat contrived circumstances winds up working as a secretary for coffee magnate Gene Raymond. The script is predictable-- you KNOW they're going to wind up together after a series of misunderstandings separates them--and Raymond, as another reviewer has noted, is as stiff as a board, but the supporting cast, especially Billy Gilbert and Victor Moore, is good. It's Sothern's show, however, and she's more than up to it. She's funny, perky, sexy and has great comic timing, which Raymond utterly lacks (she tries to connect with him, but despite her best efforts there's no chemistry there whatsoever). All in all, it's an inconsequential comedy that owes whatever success it may have had to the extraordinary talents of Ann Sothern. It's worth a watch for that, but not much else.

This film has a fine supporting cast,with the likes of Helen Broderick,Victore Moore,and Billy Gilbert.Unfortunately it does not have a good script.Furthermore there is very little chemistry between the two leads.Ann Sothern is as bubbly as ever whilst Gene Raymond performs his usual impression of an oak wood.He is stiff and bland and quite frankly a total waste of time when it comes to comedy.Furthermore this film has a number of ideas which might have seemed fine on paper but on the screen leave one feeling quite numb.So i would be bound to say that this is a waste of the considerable talent involved.So quite frankly you would be better off giving this a miss.
