| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThis pic is so lame, even the Irvin Berlin musical numbers stink. |
| User ReviewTheScarlatescu RBob Hope one of the best comedians of all time |
| User ReviewNate THope has fun with politics in a period piece film. Need I say more? |
| User ReviewJames HVery funny Bob Hope movie, filled with his unique brand of dry humor. Vera Zorina is a bland love interest, but the supporting cast is great, especially Victor Moore. Great costumes and fine sets. |
| User ReviewMichael TI'm watching the always reliable Bob Hope in this witty and amusing musical. It's worth the watch for Hope's steady dry humor, the excellent music and the Technicolor filming! |
