Summary: A great value, comedy DVD with original trailer!
Review: I have to give this DVD 5/5 - for the fact it's amazingly great value for money. The picture quality was superb and even though it says it's widescreen the picture is almost FULL screen size so the images were as large as life. As a bonus you also get to see the trailer which was cute.Anyhow, for those who don't know James Garner plays an obstetrician and Doris Day is the ultimate "stay-at-home Mom", until that is she becomes the face of "Happy" soap, much to the dislike of her husband ! This fast paced, screwball comedy follows the couple's marital mayhem including that unforgettable scene with that car in that pool of bubbles. Simply wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Some classic moments, but overall a bit dull
Review: I remember really enjoying this film aas a young child. Funnily enough only for the scenes which I consider now "classic moments". These include James Garner driving into the pool, the soap suds in the back yard, and DOris Day's first day on the job as the Soap model.
However, the overall film is quite dull and I can see why it is not one of Doris's most famous films. When people think of a Doris film, they think of "Pillow Talk". It's rare to find folks that remember this movie.
It's nice to see the film again after all the years, but it did drag ...

Summary: A Great Saturday Afternoon Film
Review: I saw this film as a child and never forgot the "car in the bubble bath pool" scene. Now that I am an adult (at least my driver's license says so), I can truly appreciate the entire film: the brilliant chemistry between Doris Day and James Gardner (although he's Victorian throughout the film, he's still a hunk), the downright silliness of Carl Reiner's cameos, the ridiculous advertising executives, the adorable kids ("that shampoo makes my hair smell like the cracks in the school yard"), and Ms. Day's attempt to stand up for the 1960's woman and (gulp) WORK! It's a charming film especially on a saturday afernoon.

Summary: First-Rate Light Comedy
Review: I've heard "War of the Roses" described as "dark comedy" or "black comedy". "The Thrill of It All" is the complete opposite. James Garner plays a doctor and Doris Day is his stay-at-home wife (this movie reflects suburban living in the late fifties and early sixties very well). Everything is fine until Doris Day gets noticed by a soap company and they make her their new spokesperson. One comic disaster after another follows this change (the convertible going into the swimming pool full of soap-suds is one of the most memorable comic moments in any movie) while Doris tries to juggle a new career without neglecting her children or her husband. Will the marriage survive? Will the career survive? We KNOW the car doesn't survive! If you want to know what comedy was like in the early sixties, watch this movie: it's fun, it's light-hearted, it's friendly, and it's clean (and very soapy!). While there is no real complexity to the dialogue or the roles, Doris Day and James Garner do their jobs perfectly here. Carl Reiner has several cameo appearances, as different characters, and shines in every one (although I think I would overdose on him if the whole movie was about him). Just plain clean fun!

Summary: Day "Thrills" All!
Review: In the early 1960's, a time when Elizabeth Taylor, Kim Novak, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, and Shirley MacLaine were starring in films, the number one box-office draw was a woman whose success was not built on notoreity but on a natural and skilled ability to play mothers and working women. She was Doris Day and the 1963 blockbuster, "The Thrill Of It All" is a perfect example why the distinguished Quigley Polling of top box-office attractions for the past 70 years finds Day the number one box-office female star in film history. Skillfully directed by Norman Jewison who later helmed such successes as "Moonstruck" and "In The Heat of the Night" among others, "Thrill" also benefits from a witty script penned by Carl Reiner and a glossy and typically opulent production by Ross Hunter. Jean Louis decks Doris out in some gorgeous outfits that accentuate her luscious figure and the supporting cast is headed by Arlene Francis and Edward Andrews in roles that Hunter originally offered, in 1962, to Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy. As Beverly Boyer, wife of a successful doctor and mother of two, Doris is offered a chance to work as a spokeswoman for Happy Soap and leaps at the chance to do more than make homemade bottled ketchup and attend PTA Meetings. While it may sound pat and simple, the scenes are often hysterically funny and Zasu Pitts makes the most of what is little more than a cameo and turned out to be her final cinema appearance. Doris and James Garner, teaming for the first time, work well together and the only regret about "The Thrill of It All" is that the funs ends too quickly. This is one "Thrill" that everyone can enjoy!

Summary: A Comedy Classic!
Review: James Garner and Doris Day are wonderful in this face-paced screwball comedy. A great supporting cast, comical script, smashing Jean Louis clothes, and eye popping sets make this movie a visual treat! The pool scene and Miss Day's temper tantrums are hilarious!

Summary: I'm Beverly Boyer and I'm a pig
Review: James Garner helps a woman to become pregnant (in his role as a doctor.) He is also the classic conservative husband who assumes that his wife would stay home and make catch up. However, after being offered an enormous amount of money Beverly border decides to take a job doing commercials for the people that James Garner helped.
On the TV shows that Beverly Boyer (Doris Day) advertises on, Carl Reiner gets to play a different era (same plot) bad guy. They say it is too subtle for the audience to notice that it is the same script. After all, we do not notice that the same plots run through most TV programs today.
No one can tell me that Spot Checker could not sell ME soap from a bathtub. Ha, Not risqué huh?
This is a great 60's comedy and if you like the over flowing soap suds scene then you will also enjoy "Bachelor in Paradise" with Bob Hope.
