| User ReviewTyler PHe takes down a swordsman with the power of dance. It also stars THE wizard of Oz. It's funny and entertaining. |
| User ReviewDeborah FCute Musical-Comedy with an unusual premise. Charles Collins is a smooth dancer on the level with Fred Astair. I wish I coiuld see much more of his dancing. I felt part of the story was rushed and could have been fleshed out a bit more, but overall, I enjoyed the film and will recommend it to others!!! |
| User ReviewAngela FA delightfully campy, feel good movie! The costuming is fabulous, and must have been vibrant in its original Technicolor-- the copy I saw happened to be in black and white (with the credits amusingly proclaiming "Filmed in Technicolor!"). Filled with witty quotes, and fun dances. I especially loved a finale at the end using capes. Don't question the absurdity. Enjoy! |
| User ReviewMindy BThis movie is hilarious! I am actually amazed they have it on flixster to be honest. Got this bad boy for a dollar and it was worth every penny |
| User ReviewMarkian BNot nearly as cool as you'd think from the title... |
| User ReviewMatt MFrom a time when any story could be adapted into a musical, comes this film about a pirate who has to convince a village he is indeed a dance teacher from Boston and not the leader of his gang. Outdated and lacking any notable charisma, this film is at times little more than just awkward, but also relies on some nice dance choreography. |
| User ReviewMichael TRather unremarkable, including the Rodgers & Hart songs. |
| User ReviewJoy WIt amuses if you like the older musical type of movies. |
