Review:
"I wish so much that family friendly comedy like this packed the theaters today. Nice plot twists and surprising talent from Judy Canova. Good blend of slapstick and situation comedy. My favorite line: "I was upstairs in the attic settin' mousetraps." I have to use that line sometime. The banker is played by a staple from the Dick Van Dyke show. He played "Mel". Can you name him? Watch for some low-key pathos as this country bumpkin manages her dignity, and her love for a houseful of orphans, in a sea of sharks. This may not seem related, but in the world of ballet, I recall how Ballerina Christine Sarry described the role of the cowgirl from Copland's "Rodeo". If you're not careful, you will break your neck doing those moves. In this film, Judy Canova, a skilled performer, must act like an awkward country girl, who is practicing body movements she learned from a fake charm school. There is a scene where the body control for this stunt was impressive, as it was funny. Turn on to Judy Canova. I must find more of her." Written By mbanak on IMDb.com
