| User ReviewJeremiah LI've lost all unbiased perspective to A&C at this point, but I liked it. |
| User ReviewBrett SI enjoyed this. The plot was funny, & as always, some of the things they get into is funny. |
| User ReviewBrian BThere's not a lot of difference with this and Hit the Ice, but anything with Abbott and Costello is usually funny. |
| User ReviewTim DWeak film by A&C and the gags seem to get tired as the film goes on, there were a few good moments but overall I would rank this one of the boys weaker films, avoid this film and focus on their 1940s films |
| User ReviewHayden LA nice addition to the dynamic duo's previous works. Though not as much gags as you might expect or were hoping for it still is a wonderful experience. |
| User ReviewJ MDecent, but not great. Still, it's Bud and Lou, so it's gonna be funny. |
| User ReviewJames Ta good story not the best jokes but still fun |
| User ReviewJonathan SAbbott and Costello in the snow. It could work. |
| User ReviewTristan DAn average Abbott and Costello adventure. Nothing really happens and it is somewhat lacking in terms of routines and wordplay. Also, outside of the igloo chase, almost all of the best bits happen before they actually get "lost in Alaska". Still, The Boys have their wits about them, Tom Ewell has a good running gag with his attempted suicides and Bruce Cabot is a servicable villain. |
| User ReviewAnthony VAlthough Bud and Lou are always a pleasure to watch, this consists of mostly rehashed humor, although the sequence where Bud tricks Lou into keeping watch all night can cause some smiles. |
