Review of Flying Down to Rio (1933) by Brian S — 26 May 2009
Definitely interesting, but not that outstanding. I'm glad Fred & Ginger's lone dance number caught enough attention to warrant future pairings--they almost get lost amidst the boring leads, the minimal dry humour, and the transitional editing that felt like a 1930s PowerPoint presentation.
a few hints of clever effects work, and the film was entertaining enough, but it's absolutely no comparison to peak-form F&G.
