5 out of 5 stars Father Goose ~ classic movie !   September 6, 2008
J. Loftus (Chicago)
Light-hearted, yet philosophical and with a spark of "danger"
thrown in at just the right times.
Brilliant role by Cary Grant, with his classic expressions, and
subtle moves. Just a great sit-back-and-enjoy movie.



5 out of 5 stars Father Goose with Cary Grant   August 7, 2008
Robert C. Appleby
Father Goose is not only a showcase of cry Grant's considerable acting talents, but an excellent example of American culture and social attitudes during World War Two. Although set in the Pacific, this film (by turns dramatic, romantic and very, very funny) shows American mores and values of yesteryear. All in all, a great film that I'd recommend to anyone!

5 out of 5 stars Charming movie   August 4, 2008
Eva H. Morris (Sydney Australia)
My husband and I both enjoyed this charming movie very much, very entertaining, lots of humour. There were some glitches in the script, but we forgave that. We enjoyed it very much. AND it was not at all dated.


5 out of 5 stars Cary Grant's Last Great Film   July 29, 2008
Mediaman (USA)
If you love Cary Grant you should go wild over this movie, where he spends most of his time in a grisly half-beard and scruffy clothes. It was his last great movie.

Grant, playing against type, ends up helping the U.S. in World War II by being a spotter on a Pacific island. Who else could capture the screen time so well when being all alone on the island (maybe Tom Hanks, since he did it too?). When Grant meets Caron and the little girls it turns into a hilarious battle. The ending has some suspense before it all ends happily ever after.

A great movie for Grant fans. Too bad he didn't end with this one instead of going on to make Walk, Don't Run as his final film!

I received this new remastered DVD in a matter of days after ordering. The product is excellent, and the story "Father Goose" is humorous family entertainment.
