Two musicians witness a mob hit and struggle to find a way out of the city before they are found by the gangsters. Their only opportunity is to join an all-girl band as they leave on a tour. To make their getaway they must first disguise themselves as women, then keep their identities secret and deal with the problems this brings - such as an attractive bandmate and a very determined suitor.

Some Like It Hot Ratings & Reviews

  • cultfilmlikerJuly 21, 2025
    “Some people got no respect for the dead” Tony Curtis looks just like Robert Downey Jr. in this (full disclosure: my mom disagrees) Loved Marilyn Monroe’s performance. Some of the comedy was a little too much (and so much sexual harassment lmao) but everything Marilyn did was gold. Especially when she made Tony Curtis look like Austin Powers. Also, I respect Ana de Armas’ performance more now Lemmon’s tango scenes had me hootin’ and hollerin’. And the henchman’s voice is so damn weird and funny
