6/10
Fun but inconsequential.

I think "She's Got Everything" is a pleasant little film. However, I also think it would have worked better had the film been allowed to take place a bit more slowly and naturally. As it was, it sure seemed rushed--and I guess that's because tit was a B-movie and they are only about an hour in length.

The film begins with creditors descending on a mansion after the master dies. His daughter, Carol (Ann Sothern) doesn't realize he was heavily in debt but promises to go to work and try to pay off his debts. However, her conniving Aunt Jane (Helen Broderick) wants her to marry some rich guy instead. When Carol gets a job with a rich coffee tycoon, Fuller (Gene Raymond), Jane and her new partner (Victor Moore) are intent on getting the pair hitched--even if it means trying to use a hypnotist!

This is a nice little comedy. However, the last five minutes seem like about 15 or more all condensed into five. After all, why would she be so angry with him even once she learns that her Aunt is the villain and why would she then instantly relent and marry him?! She comes off as a bit strange and the ending is good but way, way too rushed.
