Reviews
Despite its star-studded cast and vibrant musical numbers, 'The Kissing Bandit' fails to live up to the expectations set by other Frank Sinatra films. The storyline feels disjointed and the pacing is uneven, leaving the audience disconnected from the characters' motivations. Critics have described the film as a misfire in Sinatra's career, noting that even his charismatic performances couldn't salvage the weak plot. Rotten Tomatoes gives the movie a disappointing rating of 36%, emphasizing the lack of coherence in the storytelling. IMDb's rating of 5.3/10 reflects the mixed reception among viewers, with many pointing out the film's lackluster execution and dated humor. While some appreciate the musical sequences and Sinatra's performance, 'The Kissing Bandit' ultimately falls short of being a memorable classic.
