COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Great movie submitted by andreahubert on July 6, 2012, 3:40pm Although the premise is terrible, it is a fun movie.

Fun Musical submitted by ks1287 on July 26, 2013, 8:14pm Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is one of the classical musicals with it's hilarious plot and fun songs. Although pretty corny at times, it's still a great movie and will have you laughing out loud especially when the brothers kidnap their crushes.

Awesome! submitted by kelleyc on August 12, 2016, 9:44am This is a classic musical. Entertaining, funny, and the barn-raising scene can't be beat!

Dated Movie Musical submitted by ekjensen on June 24, 2018, 5:35pm Storyline is totally out of the date and yet, the barn raising dance is spectacular and the one very long filmed scene that is an absolute MUST SEE/VIEW for the movie buff!
