I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I enjoyed it watching the great dance moves and the songs were good. One dance was very funny. This movie for me is to know how people enjoys old movies. Well, this movie will not fulfill your expectation people living in 2018 but it certainly is worth to watch.

When Movies or pictures as they called them they had no sound and then the movie the Jazz Singer was the first talkie movie to be brought into mainstream and when it came out there was a storm for all studios to jump onto to making talking movies and the plot of Singin' in the rain follows a production studio that is trying to swich over to talkie movies and have a tough time doing it and we follows a on screen couple Lina Lamont and Don Lockwood and off screen they are not a couple but when a beatiful voiced women played by Debbie Reynolds who will help bring life to talkies.
The Cast is Gene Kelly as Don Lockwood,Donald O'Connor as Cosmo Brown, Debbie Reynolds as Kathy Selden,Jean Hagen as Lina Lamont,Millard Mitchell as R.F. Simpson and many more this cast are filled with energy and they bring fun and quirky energy to songs like singing in the rain and good morning and the broadway ballet there energy is amazing.
love this movie so much the songs are unique and funky but also they are not basic for a musical and they are not afarid to have a musical number go on for a very long time the story is great the acting is great the music is great and this is one of the original musicals and it will always have that title this movie is just amazing

This is an amazing movie. It will make you laugh, maybe cry, and want to sing. The songs are really catchy. My favorite song is Make Em' Laugh by Donald O'Connor. The movie's story of making a movie with sound is perfectly done and great in the eyes of a filmmaker.

"Singin' in the Rain" is considered by many to be the greatest movie musical of all time. It's hard to argue that point. It's got everything, a solid cast, great songs, glorious Technicolor and solid production numbers.Don Lockwood (Kelly and Cosmo Brown (Donald O'Connor) are vaudevillians in the 1920s. They are not doing so well and decide to try Hollywood. Lockwood becomes a stunt man who graduates to starring in adventure films with co-star Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen). It is the time of the introduction to sound and it is discovered that Lamont does not have a voice suitable for sound. One night after being mobbed by adoring fans, Lockwood meets Kathy Selden (the still teen-aged Debbie Reynolds), an aspiring singer/dancer. Love at first sight. Kathy is trained to dub Lamont's voice in the studio's first sound film. It is a big success. Lamont arranges for Kathy to be contractually bound to continue dubbing her voice. But Lockwood, Cosmo, and studio boss R.F. Simpson (Millard Mitchell have other ideas and...................................There are several memorable performances in this film. O'Connor performs the comical "Make 'em Laugh", Kelly of course performs the title tune and appears in the "Broadway Melody" production number with a cast of thousands and the lovely Cyd Charisse with whom he has a couple of dance numbers. The stars do a delightful "Good Mornin" song and dance as well. Jean Hagen almost steals the film as the deceitful Lina Lamont.MGM dusted off several of their old songs for this film. "Good Mornin'" for example, was sung by Judy Garland in 1939's "Babes in Arms". The song, "Beautiful Girl" is ably performed by Jimmy Thompson who received no billing or acclaim for his effort. Wwatch for Rita Moreno as Zelda, Lamont's scheming ally. "B" western bad guy Douglas Fowley turns in a dandy performance as the frustrated director and Kathleen Freeman and King Donovan turn up in minor roles as well.This would by Gene Kelly's second of back to back successes following "An American in Paris" a year earlier. Sadly the movie musical was on decline and both Kelly and O'Connor would soon be searching for alternatives. The diminutive Debbie Reynolds was just getting started and would go on performing on stage, film and TV for the rest of her life.
