The last entries of series are, as a rule, bad. This one breaks the mold and, while hardly in a league with the earlier films, can hold its own against any B movie mystery of the period.

While Song of the Thin Man is no world beater, it still is a mighty pleasant picture to have around.

It just doesn't swing (or bop), but the stars always click. [15 Jul 2005, p.C8]

Nick and Nora investigate a jazz-club killing in this final entry (1947) in the series, which gets by—just barely—on the charm of stars William Powell and Myrna Loy.

Song of the Thin Man is a slight improvement. It's got more laughs. And it's got an 11-year-old Dean Stockwell as an amusingly precocious Nick Jr.

Powell and Loy try gamely to work their magic and wit, but it’s no use anymore.
