Once you relax and decide to enjoy this film and not be critical about it; this film is a lot of fun. I mean, here we have Hollywoods finest, at time, at Warner Brothers, sometimes, looking embarrassed with the question of why they got talked into making this film, but it was for the war effort, and it's amusing to see non-musical performers trying to be musical. You couldn't get away with a film like this today. I mean, who would agree to sing and dance when they know that they can't sing and dance. Can't you just see Brad Pitt and Leonardo Di Caprico singing and dancing in the number "We're Just A Couple of Song and Dance Men" which was a number performed by Fred Astaire and Bing Crosby in Blue Skies? Or, on the other hand, maybe I can! Actually, there's a few surprises in this film: Of course, I would get shot if I didn't mention Bette Davis singing and dancing to "They're Either Too Young or Too Old", and doing it very, very, well! So well, that the song became a Juke Box hit after she introduced the song in the movie. In an interview she stated that she was happy to introduce the song! One up for Ms. Davis! Another surprise was Alexis Smith, because at that time, I didn't know that she was a song and dance artist, and when she sang "Some Sunday Morning" in San Antonio with Errol Flynn sitting in the saloon watching her, we thought that her singing was probably dubbed, but no, it was her singing, but who knew that she was an expert in the dancing department as well? As for Eddie Cantor: Sorry people, I'm just not an Eddie Cantor fan, but I do give him credit for being one of the great artists, among otters, at that period of time. He's an incredible performer, but I just don't like him! But, at the end of the movie when the curtain closes with The End on it, it reminds me of attending a High School Variety Show. There's just something schoolish about it. The feel that you have just witnessed a High School play and that you're sitting in the audience. The curtains close like a High School Auditorium Currain! This is a lot of fun seeing what some of the contract players can do with a song and dance musical, and it should just be enjoyed! Great entertainment
