Review of Holiday

Holiday (1938)
3/10
nothing special

Warning: Spoilers
The plot of the movie moved along way too slow, and i was bored almost throughout the entire thing. Katharine Hepburn has yet to impress me, and this is just yet another film where i wish she was not a part of. Her character was too whiny and childish and to watch this movie was to suffer. This aside, she does have excellent chemistry with Cary Grant and they work very well together.

I did, however, like the overall idea of the movie, being that an engaged man falls in love with the sister of his betrothed. the topic seems entirely taboo, maybe because i know if i even thought about one of my sisters men, past or present, the outcome would be catastrophic.

Overall, there was nothing special or unique about this movie. it was kind of bland, not memorable, and i probably could've done without.
