Summary: wonderful-naturally
Review: doris day is, of course, wonderful in everything she has been in, more so though in this movie where she gets to exhibit her beautiful singing voice and unbelieveable acting ability to it's highest potential.yes, the plot my be a tad bit unbelieveable, (espcially in these days) but Day plays the title role so convincingly you can forgive her for whatever lapses in judgement she may have.

Summary: YOU WILLL NOT FIND THIS MOVIE A CALAMITY!
Review: EXCELLENT! Keel and Day what a combo! You won't see your typical Doris Day...she is a rough, shooting, tomboy! I love when William Keel and her fall in love! Add to your library!

Summary: Doris Day enchants the audience with her charm
Review: Day gives a charming performance as the wacky Calamity Jane. As a "cowgirl" in the midwest, she makes the audience love her with her style. The catchy music keeps you singing. You'll fall in love with the characters as the plot so quickly goes by. You can never see this delightful musical too many times!

Summary: Great singalong
Review: What can I say - but the greatest singalong movie ever - starring the unbeatable Ms. Day. Movies don't get any better than this.

Summary: The Doris Day Show.
Review: Very much the star of the show, Doris Day carries "Calamity Jane" with all the perkiness and spark one could possibly imagine. Jane is more manly than most of the men in the show, and although one could read a lesbian subtext into the film, that was most likely not the intention of the writers or the star. Still, this is a fun, albeit slightly cornball western musical, and one of Day's greatest film roles.

Summary: Fun western musical!
Review: As tomboy Calamity Jane, Doris Day is entertaining and funny. In order to get noticed by leutenant GilMartin, Jane changes her deerskin leather for silk and high heels. Unfortunately for Jane, GilMartin has his eyes set on the newcomer actress Katie Brown. But all isn't lost for Jane because she manages to impress her handsome best pal Wild Bill Hickock (Howard Keel) with her new feminine look.
Fun musical numbers and great chemistry between Day and Keel.

Summary: "Take Me Back To The Black Hills"
Review: Two years ago, I began to rent a musical whenever I went to the video store. I started with the ones that I had at least heard of and then moved on to others (the workes still think I deranged). "Calamity Jane" was my first meeting with Doris Day, and I fell in love with this actress. This movie, completely historically inaccurate, is wonderful. It has everything without the vulger lanuage or sex scenes of today's movies. My one problem with this movie is its attitude and treatment of women and minorities (the Dakota Indians). This movie, if taken only for fun, music, and with a grain of salt--is absolutley delightful. My favorite part of this movie is the music. As the one songs says, "Take Me Back To The Black Hills." --Becky, 17 yearold girl

Summary: ONE OF THE BEST MUSICALS EVER!
Review: This is the movie that made me love Doris Day! I feel that "Calamity Jane" is the best movie she has ever made! Day has encaptured Calam better than anyone else ever could and has made this one of my favorite musicals. Taking us from Deadwood to Chicago and back, she exudes confidence yet innocent vulnerability in her character and you can see how much Day and Calamity are the same. Howard Keel and the rest of the cast are also wonderful and you get to really know and understand what makes Deadwood such a great western town. With all of the great songs (that I love to sing along with) and the funny, charming story of love and jealousy, this is a show that I never tire of seeing again and again.
