★★★★★ · Great movie · quixote9 · 2006-01-03
Never heard of Zazu Pitts or the director, Jean Yarbrough, but from now on I'm looking out for anything they've done. As the reporter-guy says, "Aunt Emma, you're all right."
★★★★★ · Great fun! · altodiva · 2005-02-25
Zasu Pitts is fabulous as the small-town Aunt Emma who goes to the big city for a boxing match and is mistaken for a lady gangster. She decides to play along for some great comedic moments. I really enjoyed this.
★★★★★ · A new old favorite · kareneliot · 2005-09-24
Delightful. Well worth watching twice. Entertaining and interest keeping throughout!
★★★★★ · A diamond in the rough!! · The Bryson Bandit · 2009-02-17
Extremely good Zazu Pitts vehicle. Why they didn't make more Aunt Emma films (similar to The Thin Man series) is mystifying. This movie really is enjoyable & worth a look!!

★★★★ · Good, clean fun · EsTiSi · 2005-06-27
Sweet old lady come gangsta comedy has its moment in every generation I suppose. Here it is predictable but never dull.
