In order to avoid arrest, A&C enlist in the army and get tangled in a romantic subplot involving a millionaire, his former valet, and a camp hostess. Silly fun takes place on the eve of World War II, with Abbott and Costello scoring laughs and the Andrews Sisters singing "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" and "Apple Blossom Time." Funny, despite the silly romance.
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Abbott & Costello fans will love this
Abbott & Costello were just starting their movie careers when this military comedy was made, and their energy and freshness are obvious in this. The film was a huge hit in theaters and includes many of Bud and Lou's best routines. The romantic subplot, mandatory in 1941, isn't so compelling today, but fortunately Bud and Lou are never offscreen for long. Good songs by The Andrews Sisters, and a dynamite jitterbug finale by "24 champion boogie-woogie dancers" (credited that way in the movie). If you like Abbott & Costello and have never seen this, grab it. Worth watching again and again.
Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not so funny This guys maybe were funny in 1950 but today... Tons of cliches of old times comedy and nothing original. Better buy Stan and Laurel!
