BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

bex_disney I discovered this movie because of Cliff Robertson. I didn't watch it then, but then when Rod Taylor passed away I rediscovered the film and had to see it. The first half of the film is like any other 1960s rom-com. It's cute, funny, etc etc. Then it takes a turn that was unexpected, but very good, about halfway through. Still it wasn't amazing or anything. While I was watching the last 20-30 minutes I was thinking about how I would write my review. BUT WAIT, there's more! ....The last 15 minutes of this movie are absolute PERFECTION! Just watch it. its amazing. Rod Taylor is great!

The two spend the day together and soon develop feelings for one another.Things get complicated because Eileen is a virgin and is unsure about whether she wants to have sex before marriage. Besides that her ex(Robert Culp)turns up looking for her and Eileen makes Mike pretend to be her brother because Adam's on a date with his girlfriend.Funny and romantic with an enchanting lead performance by Fonda and featuring Rod Taylor at his most sexy, Sunday In New York is a gentle and delightful romantic comedy filled with fine performances.

bob-790-196018 You have to make allowances for its time. What was "naughty" in 1963 is mild stuff today. Given that, it's a fun movie, thanks to a clever story, a first-rate cast, and a couple of nice songs.Cliff Robertson shows real comic timing, with Rod Taylor something of a straight man. Taylor is, as usual, a likable fellow--quite masculine but perfectly willing in this part to let himself be socked in the face a couple of times, splashed by passing trucks, and subjected to the baleful eye of Robertson as the protective big brother. Jane Fonda is just right as a young woman both virginal and luscious.The film has many ingredients hinting at the sophistication of the Kennedy era--the sophisticated bachelor apartment, Peter Nero's night club music, and especially New York as a really great place to be when you are young enough and accomplished enough to enjoy it. New York as a city infested with crime and on the verge of bankruptcy was a dozen years in the future.One notices the easy confidence of the male characters. Much would change, starting soon after the picture was made with JFK's assassination and followed by years of turmoil and grief, as well as rapid progress for women and, at least politically, for blacks. White males would never again rule the roost unchallenged.

Ed Uyeshima Was Jane Fonda really this young? In this coy 1963 sex farce written by comedy veteran Norman Krasna (Alfred Hitchcock's "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", "Indiscreet"), she plays Eileen Tyler, a 22-year-old girl from Albany paying an unexpected visit to her airline pilot brother Adam in the Big Apple. She is reeling from a fight with her fiancé Russ who is giving her undue pressure to put out before they marry. Adam assures her that waiting for the wedding night is the right thing to do and then deceives her into thinking he is doing the same. Naturally, he turns out to be a womanizer planning to shag his girlfriend that day. Feeling like the only virgin in the world, Eileen meanwhile engages in a flirtation with a reporter named Mike Mitchell. Complications ensue with mistaken identities and morality questions thrown in to make the plot more interesting.As if you couldn't tell from the swinging title tune sung by Mel Torme, the film is an idealization of early-1960's Manhattan single life that merely toys with the idea of premarital sex well before the concept of free love came into vogue. Guided by TV director Peter Tewksbury, there is a mechanical sitcom feel to the proceedings, but the real NYC locations help and the three leads are game players. Fonda is adorably adroit in a preview of her bouncier work in "Barefoot in the Park", and Cliff Robertson plays Adam's double-standard hypocrisy with agility. However, it's Rod Taylor, fresh from filming Hitchcock's "The Birds", who shines the most as Mike in a deft turn. Jazz pianist and composer Peter Nero supplies the loudly intrusive soundtrack. This film (released just a week before JFK's assassination) has yet to make it to DVD.
