There's No Business Like Show Business
Terry (Dan Dailey) and Molly (Ethel Merman) are vaudeville performers who eventually add their three children to the act to become 'The Five Donahues.' Son Tim meets hat-check girl Vicky and the family act begins to fall apart.

Overstuffed and cornball, but some great Berlin musical numbers, especially Monroe's "Heat Wave."

The movie does not blend the magic of music, dance, and emotion in the way which the best musicals do.

Corny, loud, splashy, but it has Merman and solid cast

Though Marilyn Monroe was the country's biggest movie star, this plotless musical, a tribute to the genius composer Irving Berlin, belongs to Ethel Merman.

The decline of the musical starts here. Faux Kelly just doesn't work.

If you're looking for a good film that features Irving Berlin tunes, this one is not the film you're looking for.
