Below par Abbott & Costello film. Would be a very good movie on it's own standing but not quite as good as other Abbott & Costello flicks. The picture has one of the better stories and in my opinion is one of the pictures they've done that the whole family could watch together. There are very funny parts as with all Abbott & Costello pictures but it certainly could've been better. I would not recommend this is a purchase...if you want a good Abbott & Costello picture try "Time Of Their Lives", "Buck Privates" or "Hold That Ghost". This one you can skip.
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Basic Good A&C Fun One of Abbott and Costello's better excursions, this film was out of ciculation due to legal entanglements. Whatever circumstances allowed its video release, Universal MCA certainly didn't involve itself, and that is a shame. Their print would have been clean and fresh, as indicated by their other Abbott and Costello releases. The current video copy of "It ain't Hay" is a muddied, multi-generational print. To be fair, it still is very watchable (no splices). I recommend it.
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - it aint hay....nay
Not one of Abbott@ Costello's best. They seem to be going through the motions...routines are too short... Costello tries pathos with mixed results....Abbott is really mean to Costello when he slaps his face.... The music and dancing is grade z.......................Disappointing!
