A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

More Glynis Johns! Continuing her role as Miranda, Glynis Johns is the same flirtatious mermaid who is simply mad about men. This time around, we first see Glynis swimming and winning a swimming contest. But, wait a minute! She's got legs and people are calling her Caroline, and not Miranda. It dawns on the viewer, when Caroline is planning on going on vacation to a remote village by the seashore, that Caroline is going to meet Miranda and that Ms. Johns is going to play two parts. Those involved in making this picture must have realized the only way to outdo the first film was to have a double dose of Glynis! And, it turns out they're related. Which of course explains why they look so much alike. For those that liked "Miranda", they'll enjoy Miranda's escapades in this outing. Others may find it too silly, but Glynis exudes too much energy and charm for anyone to be really complaining about anything wrong with this film. Of course, as you expect, Miranda goes on land, posing as the earthbound Glynis(who has a fiancé) and all the while toys with several men's affections, and is even forward to a clerk in a jewelry store, and then the fiancé shows up and things get sticky.There's even another mermaid, who gets into trouble a lot and is always giggling. Margaret Rutherford is on hand to aid Miranda in her existence on land. But, it does feel like too much time is spent on Margaret and the other mermaid in their skirmishes!!One of her love interests is Donald Sinden, who was Grace Kelly's husband in "Mogambo," whose looks were overlooked due to the presence of Gable. But here Sinden is shown to good effect.And, Miss Johns gets a chance to show off her lovely voice in singing a song in tribute to men. So, forget everything and dive in! More Glynis Johns is something to celebrate!

Mad About Men is a sequel to the innovative little British comedy Miranda. That film was about a mermaid coming out of water and befriending every male she met. This picks up some time after with Glynis Johns reprising her role not only as Miranda but also as stuffy teacher Caroline going to Cornwall to sell her house so she can marry snooty Peter Martyn. There she finds Miranda, realizes the two look just alike, and leaves Miranda in her place as herself. Naturally, Miranda is up to nothing but mischief, again befriending every male she meets. Brain surgeons are not needed to figure out how this all ends, but the film has a nice pace and keeps the whole thing afloat somehow. Like its predecessor, Mad About Men is charming, funny, and frivolous entertainment. Johns is breathtaking in colour. She exudes tons of sex appeal once again as the fishy nymphomaniacal mermaid looking for men. Margaret Rutherford reprises her role as the nurse who knows Miranda's secret and as always is a joy. The rest of the cast is very solid, and director Ralph Thomas does a more than workmanlike job creating some believability - a possible problem with this film, unlike Miranda, being in glorious colour.

I never saw MIRANDA but this is a lively sequel to that film with GLYNIS JOHNS again playing the saucy mermaid with her usual charm.Glynis is a flirtatious mermaid who takes the place of a schoolteacher for a couple of weeks, determined to find a better husband for her than the stuffy fiancé she's engaged to. They resemble each other greatly because, as "Miranda" describes it, they're both descended from the mermaid side of the family.It's utter nonsense, played to the hilt by a cast intent on making it reasonably funny but only partly succeeding.MARGARET RUTHERFORD overplays the role of a dotty nurse who looks after the mermaid and is in her element in over-the-top fantasy farce. DONALD SINDEN is a wealthy man Miranda has her eyes on as a possible husband for the schoolteacher.It's filmed in garish looking color (unusual for a British film which usually featured muted color), but the charm begins to wear off fairly early as the plot gets sillier and sillier.Summing up: Mermaid comedies are not my cup of tea and this one is sillier than most, especially when the mermaid's inability to walk is compensated by some weak plot contrivances which has her being carried around by the men with her mermaid tail barely concealed under a thin blanket.Trivia note: Interesting to see JOAN HICKSON as the owner of a lodge, long before she became Jane Marple for British TV.

'Mad About Men' is every bit as good as 'Miranda', although it doesn't pick up the pace until at least a third in. Caroline Trewella has gone to stay at her Cornish cottage for a few days when she meets her distant cousin, Miranda. Miranda wants to go back on land, so Caroline agrees to let her take her place whilst she goes out cycling with a friend. And the first thing Miranda does is to decide that Caroline needs a better fiancee!The colour looks a bit garish on Glynis Johns but Anne Crawford and Donald Sinden look lovely. Dora Bryan is also hilarious as Miranda's annoying little companion, who upsets the applecart on every possible occasion. The basics are the same as in 'Miranda' although the ending is definitely a little neater. 9/10
