A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Although it contains one of cinema's most enduring and iconic scenes, The Seven Year Itch is not actually very good. Tom Ewell plays a married man who has the family apartment to himself for the summer, and Marilyn Monroe plays a ditzy blonde who lives upstairs. The plot charts the "will they, won't they?" situation, but hardly anything actually happens.For Monroe fans, it's a poor deal as there is an awful lot of screen time devoted to Tom Ewell delivering extended monologues, which probably worked as a stage play (which this originally was), but gets pretty boring in a movie. This is not really Ewell's fault, he knows how to perform dialogue, but the script is not engaging, as it consists mostly of the character's neurotic musings and guilt about his attractiveness/fidelity/health/the heat/work/smoking, etc. As soon as Monroe is on screen though, she lights it up, but the extent of her dimness is very forced, particularly as Ewell's character is so obviously trying to seduce her, yet she remains unbelievably and steadfastly oblivious to it for nearly all of the running time, while he burbles away via the ever present monologues. Even the skirt blowing scene is disappointing - a real let down when the on screen footage of the situation is compared to the wealth of still photographs that exist of the famous event, because in the movie it's barely even shown.Directed by Billy Wilder, it's nowhere near as smart and sassy as "Some Like It Hot". I think the stage origins drag it down. Town Ewelll is actually the central character, but he fights a losing battle against both the luminous Monroe, and the drivel of his character's dialogue. And for Marilyn Monroe fans, she does provide a textbook dizzy breathy blonde bombshell, but a sharper and wittier script would have made so much more of her.

THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH is a funny comedy that makes fun of goods fidelity in marriage and love madness. The main protagonist is a workaholic who is going through a midlife crisis. Like many husbands in this film, he sends his wife and son out of town on the summer vacation. Regardless of the love madness, which then reigned, he is trying to remain faithful to his wife, healthy habits and his work. Faithful until the hottest blonde rings the bell at his door...This film is a parody stereotype, which is not so bad. She is a stereotypical dumb blonde, but she dominates in every moment. He is the foundation and driving force in his company and he often wanders into the world of his own imagination. This is a comedy where the facts and the challenge are clearly set out. The Seven Year Itch is a fact, regardless of his crisis, raging libido and some anxiety. The challenge is Marilyn Monroe. It's simple. The pandemonium ensues when the main protagonist stops to distinguish fantasy from reality. Tom Ewell as Richard Sherman is extremely fun, especially in moments of self-punishment. His crisis are explosive, but in a farcical way, because he finds meaning in everything. Marilyn Monroe as The Girl is simply dominant. Her acting lacks a little depth, but there are too many fluttering and seduction. This is Mrs. Monroe. Her effort is undeniable. It's a little too hot.This may be adultery, but all is too lukewarm. The film definitely does not leave a strong impression.

This movie is symbolized by the image of Marilyn Monroe having her skirt blown up by a draft from a sidewalk grate, but the actual film does not show that (censorship reasons presumably). But the actual story is a farce where the sensuality is mostly implied.Richard Sherman is a man living in New York City who, like many other husbands there in the 1950's, sends his wife and son out into the countryside for the summer while he has to stay behind and continue working in the stifling heat. Other men, such as the apartment janitor and Sherman's boss, go out and live the bachelor's life in their families' absence, but Sherman has stayed faithful for seven years, and even tries to give up smoking, alcohol, and unhealthy eating.But trouble comes when he meets a ditsy female temporary neighbor who works at making television commercials. She visits him because his apartment has air conditioning and hers doesn't, and Sherman imagines the possibilities. Will he be tempted to have an affair? What will happen if people, including his wife, find out about them? And is Sherman's wife unfaithful? Temptations and doubts plague Sherman throughout the movie, all in a comical way. Joyful farcical fun.

Mahattan husbands have always sent their family away from the sweltering summer heat while they indulge in a certain type of hunting. Richard Sherman (Tom Ewell) is a 25 cent book publisher. He sends his family away and vows not to be distracted. Diversions, mostly imaginary, are everywhere. The newest is a model (Marilyn Monroe) who has moved in upstairs.This is not necessarily a great movie. Billy Wilder was hamstrung by the censorship of the day. He tries but the comedy isn't all there. Tom Ewell is ostensibly the lead but it is all Marilyn Monroe. When she's on the screen, the movie is electric. Without her, the movie is in neutral. As for the iconic scenes, it may outlive theatrical movies themselves.
