James Cagney played George M. Cohan with great vigor and won his only Oscar for that brilliant performance.

...Cagney's picture through and through. He imbues every scene with the kind of electricity only a handful of screen stars have ever managed.

Love that Cagney!

A big, old-fashioned rousing biopic of patriotic showman George M. Cohan, played with energy and gusto by Jimmy Cagney in his only Oscar-winning performance.

awfully dull and stodgy

The greatness of the film resides entirely in the Cagney performance.

It delivers its red-white-and-blue patriotism to you by the exuberant bushel, but this grand old film reminds us that there was a time when patriotism was more heartfelt than bullying and jingoistic.

Raucous, vulgar, over long.

Maybe the best-case scenario for what happens when a film biopic does everything right.

Flag waving, toe tapping, GREAT James Cagney performance as Broadway's George M. Cohan.

Yankee Doodle Dandy is rah-rah, no matter how you slice it.

You will find as warm and delightful a musical picture as has hit the screen in years, a corking good entertainment and as affectionate, if not as accurate, a film biography as has ever -- yes, ever -- been made.
