Editorial Review:

They're three beautiful models, looking for the man and the money of their dreams! Almost broke, they pool their funds to rent a posh Manhattan penthouse in which they plan to lure their victims. But the gold digger's plans suddenly go awry when two of them fall for men who appear to be poor! Trying to stop each other from marrying the wrong guy, Monroe, Grable, Bacall deliver the finest comedic performances of their careers. And they learn that a rich man is actually worthless- unless you're in love with him!

Customer Reviews:

Hilarious

These women will go to great lengths to land a rich husband, even if that means selling all they have, living on hot dogs, and going to high society parties to stake out the millionaires. The performances from all three of these actresses are amazing! You can't help but laugh at the silly things they say and do. I am a HUGE Marilyn Monroe fan, and it is one of my favorite movies with her in it, even though I wish she had a slightly bigger part. But hey-it's difficult to see more of her when they have to split the screen time between three. I highly recommend this movie!

How to Marry a Millionaire

A wonderful classic from the 1950s about three women with the perfect plan for future happiness. To marry millionaires. What they don't count on is in their search for a rich husband is finding true love and having to decide which they would rather marry for love or money.

Unfunny Comedy

HTMAM is a mediocrity.

No song-and-dance-numbers. No entertaining dialogue.

Characters which I didn't care much about.

Great Movie, but it does seem dated

Most often this film is advertised as a "Marilyn Monroe" movie, but honestly it is more Lauren Bacall. Still a great film though.

I enjoy watching it from time to time, but Bacall's obsession with wealth can be a bit much. Betty Grable definitely has some of the best scenes, especially the one on the toll road!

This movie is good fun.

Old but well Loved

I remember the first time I saw this movie. I loved it and I was glad to finally find another movie with Monroe that I really enjoyed and didn't think it was just ok. While the movie is great its extremely old in terms of the situations given to the characters. These woman would definitely not be likely characters in todays world without some major twiking. But even looking beside that this is probable one of my favorite performances by Marylin, if not my favorite for Betty Grable. It's definitely worth watching.
