Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fine Movie and DVD!!
This is a great DVD with outstanding quality. I had never seen this movie before buying the DVD but it is very enjoyable and Clark Gable is just great. Lots of Laughs! Highly Recommend!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - They don't make 'em like this any more. . .
. . . but you can still enjoy great movies from the Golden Age. Clark Gable, Myrna Loy, Walter Pidgeon -- all in their prime. Adventure, romance, comedy -- what's not to like? Pounce on this one!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - They don't make 'em like this anymore...
Another great Gable flick, this one with Myrna Loy (the Queen of Hollywood, to Gable's King). Clark plays a ruthless newsreel photographer trying to stick it to rival Walter Pidgeon and woo Amelia Earhart-style aviatrix Myrna. Fast, funny, and politically incorrect. Did I mention fast?




Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Golden Hollywood Film
Too Hot to Handle is like a two part story. The first part involves a group of newsreel cameramen. Chris (Clark Gable) is the best in the business although he sometimes resorts to deceitful methods. Just to spite him, a group of cameramen from another company fake a major event and don't tell him about it. He finds out and gets some of the best shots of a beautiful woman Alma (Myrna Loy) crashing a plane. However, the sound picks up and carries some information that could destroy her career.

After a fiasco with that, Chris and Alma team up to make a trip to South America to find Alma's lost brother, a pilot whose plane crashed in the jungle quite some time ago. Always looking for some great footage, Chris does all he can to manipulate the scenes with savage tribes for his benefit. Tension, hilarity, and great entertainment ensue.

This is a wonderfully fun movie starring two major movie stars in their prime. They're both in top form here and play beautifully off of each other.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Good darn picture
Too Hot To Handle got the wonderfull thing to be a mix of comedy,romance,and adventure.The director Jack Conway who had great sucess such has "libeled lady"and later "love crazy"made a good darn picture.
Clark Gable,Mirna Loy and Walter Conely are at the top.
A satiric film sometimes againts the newspaper.
The best scene I think is the fake shoting of the chinese army with a toy of a plane and starring a girl paid ,and her dumb familly who make gable shot a pain.
Great story,wonderfull cast,and exelent directo rmake the film:
a must see film.
