I really enjoyed it, overall. Yes, there were some small things that detracted but it was a very solid movie. I liked some of the smaller subtleties in the dialogue, like when they're trying to find a leading lady and Denham suggests "Fay" and Preston mentions she's busy working for RKO - this is obviously a reference to Fay Wray working on the original King Kong movie for RKO pictures around the time this movie was set.

Little things like that always enhance movies for me, for some reason.
