Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

What a tremendous idea for a plot! "Who Was That Lady" has one funny scene after another. This is a very good comedy of story and happenings. One doesn't need crisp or witty dialog. Very much of that, and it would begin to compete with and lessen the effect of the antics and hilarious circumstances. Much of the comedy here is in innuendo and rather obvious build-ups. But it's so funny just because it happens as we imagine it will from the build-up. The scenes just give prolonged enjoyment to the hilarious situations. The cast all are OK or better. Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh were real husband and wife at the time, and they sparkle together. Leigh's performance is tops as Ann Wilson, wife of Columbia University professor David Wilson. Dean Martin is Michael Haney, a long-time school chum and Army buddy of David. He has a TV show with access to all kinds of props. David faces a divorce because Ann walked in on a scene in his chemistry lab. A foreign exchange student was showing her appreciation to the professor with a big kiss. Michael comes to the rescue with the most unbelievable story. David was just kissing the student, a foreign agent, in the line of duty – because he and Michael are undercover FBI agents on the side. After Michael has his props man make a realistic FBI card for David, we have a hilarious scene in which the doubting Ann all of a sudden believes the story and then eagerly begins to fantasize over her husband's real identity. When the real FBI get wind of what is going on, the humor increases by leaps and bounds. James Whitmore is Harry Powell, the real FBI agent sent to monitor, harness and reign in the impostor FBI agents. The restaurant scenes in Lee Wong's restaurant left me in stitches. Then, just when new think the plot has run out, it take a turn and another hilarious scene put the duo in the basement of the Empire State Building which they think is a Russian submarine. They decided to sacrifice themselves and take the enemy sub down with them. The humor just keeps rolling. This is the best of situation comedy. Curtis and Martin both had good careers and made some entertaining movies. Martin's singing and recordings were a bigger part of his career. And Curtis, especially, could do dramatic roles. But for the most part, both men played in lighter comedies with less demanding roles. So, this is a pleasant surprise for the amount of humor. We must chalk that up to Norman Krasna who wrote the original play and then the screenplay for this film. One could envision other males, especially, in these roles. A number of other actors in Martin's role might have given the film more of a boost. But, it is very funny and good entertainment as it is.

All this star power--what a waste. Doubtless in 1960 this seemed a passable comedy, even clever, and it didn't raise an eyebrow that a man's highest goal was to fool his wife into abject devotion so he could have "good home cooking" with "romance on the side" whenever he wanted.Dean Martin grates on contemporary taste in everything he ever did. Tony Curtis fares better and Janet Leigh suffers through a thankless role here. By all accounts Norman Krasna was an objectionable little man, out to wreak his revenge on women and on all the world for his own shortcomings. He earned his reputation as someone who could turn out scripts quickly and cheaply for notoriously rapacious producers. His style of 'humor' though simply hasn't aged well. Spare yourself this particular bit of painful and extremely unfunny misogyny.

While Tony Curtis & Janet Leigh are considered the stars of this film, Dean Martin is practically a co-star in this Curtis movie doing a lot of the heavy lifting like Jack Lemmon often does in Curtis movies. The film starts with Curtis wife (Leigh) catching him (a college professor) kissing a college coed. From here, comes Dean Martin playing a TV script writer, trying to write Curtis back into his marriage to Leigh before she fly to Reno for a quickie divorce.The cover story is that Curtis is an FBI agent kissing the young girl on assignment. Then it gets complicated when James Whitmore (a real FBI agent) becomes interested in what Curtis & Martin are pulling over. This is screwball comedy done by the writer of Alfred Hitcock's only real screwball comedy (Mr & Mrs. Smith).What is most interesting is that the premise of the film hasn't changed. Today, if you catch your mate kissing (or doing) somebody else, you need an explanation or else you dump them. Usually the dumping is still the first instinct. In the case of this film, Leigh catching Curtis might have predicted the near future as 2 years later, they would divorce.There are at least 2 Martin songs & a special cameo by Jack Benny in this one. An interesting effort though the FBI line does wear a little thin about halfway through. Still, it is a nice diversion & the director has previous experience in this type of movie, so the pace & everything feel right here.

I was always a Dino fan, still am all these years later, and this film makes me wish he and Tony Curtis had made a couple more of these in the 60s. Conventional wisdom says the real talent in Martin and Lewis was Jerry, and the real talent in Some Like It Hot is Jack Lemmon and not Tony Curtis, but when these two straight men, or at least straighter men, get together, this story gets as wacky as any Hope and Crosby, Martin and Lewis, or Abbott and Costello vehicle. Both guys can be as charming as always and as goofy and funny as their other partners, with Dino running away with a little more of the comedy than Tony. This one is strictly a guy flick, a boy's club guilty pleasure about two friends conspiring to repair a marriage with a made up story of FBI agents and Russian spies and beautiful women, and just has to be funny, especially when the real FBI, James Whitmore and John McIntire, and the real KGB, Simon Oakland and Larry Storch, get wind of it and turn up. Throw in the ever lovely Janet Leigh as Tony's wife, and the pre-silicone/saline implant miracles of Barbara Nichols and Joi Lansing as two blond bimbos Dino wants help schmoozing, and this becomes every post-pubescent boys dream come true comedy of the 60s. It looks like so much fun that you have to believe these people weren't even working when they made it. And just when you think they can't go any farther or get more ridiculous, they set off to "sink" the Empire State Building. These guys could have gotten Kong down without a shot! Without apologies to anyone, I just loved this one!
