Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Easter Parade may not strike the perfect balance between song-dance interludes and story, but it's an appealing show just the same.
Fresh: Easter Parade is a musical with old and new Irving Berlin tunes and standout dance numbers.
Fresh: A fantastic movie, featuring two of the finest motion picture performers ever, Astaire and Judy Garland, in their only cinematic pairing. Ann Miller also stars in there, too, to spice things up even more.
Fresh: The Irving Berlin score is bright, and Walters is one director who knows when to leave Astaire to his own devices.

Amazing!!!!!
I am 12 years old and love hit musicals. I got this movie for Christmas and love it! Did you know, that Gene Kelly was going to play Don, but he twisted his ankle and asked Fred Astair to do it!
