Entertainment Reviews:
The songs are not classic and the cast is exuberant rather than charismatic, but Kidd's energetic choreography triumphs.

Rating: 5/5 --
Accompanying the exhilarating dancing is a fine set of songs, sung with panache, that are memorable for days afterwards.

Synthetic outdoor backdrops look oddly out of place in some scenes, but the show happily brims with gusto and melody. Howard Keel and Jane Powell top the cast.

Rating: B+ --
Written directly for ther screen, MGM's popular musical benefits immensely from Stanley Donen's deft direction, Michael Kidd's dynamic choreography, and Adolph Deutsch and Saul Chaplin's Oscar-winning score.

This is a happy, hand-clapping, foot-stomping country type of musical with all the slickness of a Broadway show.

Description by OLDIES.com:
In the Oregon Territory, mountain man Adam Pontipee (Howard Keel) comes to town to sell his crops and woo a woman to be his wife, succeeding with spirited Milly (Jane Powell), who is tired of feeding and waiting on so many men at the local inn. Her dreams of keeping house for just one man are shattered when she discovers that Adam shares his pigsty cabin with six brawling brothers. Milly's good cooking and stubborn nature whip the young men into shape and inspire them to seek women of their own. But after a disastrous barn raising during which the brothers snare the attention of the town girls only to be taunted into fighting with the town men, Adam suggests his brothers forget gentle methods of love and follow the actions of the Roman with the Sabine ("Sobbin'") women. The kidnapping of their six sweethearts spurs Milly to throw the men out of the house, but enforced proximity caused by winter and the brothers' good intentions just might help love bloom again.
