Stormy Weather Reviews

Plot doesn't matter a hoot in this lively, likable picture.

| Jan 28, 2021

The hottest thing in town.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jan 28, 2021

Really, the only thing to do is to sit back and enjoy yourself. The cast of Stormy Weather will see to that.

| Jan 28, 2021

Nicholas Brothers, whose prodigious leaps ending in splits are almost incredible, prove real show-stoppers.

| Jan 28, 2021

The Nicholas Brothers have done astonishing work in earlier pictures, but even at that, their stair-step, leap-frog splits brought gasps and a round of applause at the preview.

| Jan 28, 2021

Noisy, gay and entertaining.

| Jan 28, 2021

The spell-binding athletic feats of the dancing Nicholas Brothers, Bill Robinson's eloquent and elegant tap-dancing, and Lena Home's nicely modulated singing are all added value.

| Jan 28, 2021

Stormy Weather is a first-rate show, just the kind of spirited divertisement that will make you forget all about your own momentary weather troubles.

| Jan 28, 2021

You don't have to be a hep cat to enjoy Bill Robinson's dancing, Cab Galloway's music, Lena Home's singing, dancing, AND acting, or the entertainment provided by other individuals and teams who are adept at making time pass pleasantly for audiences.

Miss Home is a sirenic songbird who hits the heights with her rendition of Stormy Weather, in a mixture of melody and merriment crammed with talent that never lets the slight story take attention from the noisier goings-on.

| Jan 28, 2021

It is altogether too smooth, too brittle, too imitative of the normal film revue.

| Jan 28, 2021

It's a tribute to the affection in which Bojangles is held that the story plot is glossed over in favor of all the other components.

| Mar 26, 2009

Often quite imaginatively staged, the numbers are strikingly well shot by Leon Shamroy.

| Jun 24, 2006

[The cast] -- Bill Robinson, Lena Horne, Fats Waller, Cab Calloway, the amazing Nicholas Brothers -- makes it much more palatable than the other 20th Century-Fox tuners of the period, though the production is no better than average.
