I had heard such great things about this movie so I was excited to watch tonight on TCM.

To my surprise it's one of the most dreadful movies I have ever sat through. Maybe this was a good movie in 1956 but today it's just laughable. Monroe was embarrassingly bad and Murray's character would be punched or shot if he acted that way in public (whether in 1956 or 2014) so it was totally unbelievable.

"Over-acting" would be a nice comment on this cast. Just horrible.

I really felt that I wasted two hours of my life watching this. I think people may be "reviewing" this movie from memory and not re-watching it to see how bad it actually is.

After reading several good reviews for this movie (on Rotten Tomatoes) I decided to see it with a couple of friends for a fun night out. We were really disappointed.

I can remember when "A Night in Heaven" came out in 1983 to awful reviews - however, this is pretty much the same movie without the frontal that many people in the theatre were hoping for.

Channing Tatum did what he does naturally - dance and strip. But this guy is a horrible actor.

P.S. Matthew McConaughey probably should have padded his g-string - there just wasn't like anything there.

I haven't seen a movie where the acting is bad as the job done in "The Child." This is truly an amateur production.

Overpoweringly bad music, scratchy sound, and horrible lighting. This feels like a college production movie. Any horror fan could guess what's about to happen and even what the characters are about to say.

It's unfortunate that the movie is really that bad - I was hoping it would at least be cheesy in a good way but with the script and these actors there's just no way for this one to be enjoyable.

Here's hoping people don't waste their time on this one. It's available for free on youtube - thankfully, I didn't have to even waste a netflix choice on it.
