This one of those movies I'd really like to like, because the actors are good in their roles and the comedy is well paced with hilarious moments, but the underlying message spoils all the good sides.
As Fonda character explains to his daughter during one chaotic scene: love is not for fun but *just* for producing children (a good number of them) and then... you make them go to the war (look at the final).
Still I wonder:
*how the children were able to survive in such a situation: in a big family you have to fight for parents' care and attention (my granny words for that)... then you see your competitors doubled!
