The Bottom Line:Still hilarious 50 years after its release, Some Like it Hot stays funny for 120 minutes by reinventing itself every half an hour or so and coming up with new ways to be funny--watch it if you haven't.

This movie is still entertaining today even though much of the humour has eroded over the years although it's easy to see why this film would have been a side-splitting laugh fest when it was first released. Today, films about men in...

- Not funny
