Review

abbott and costello are like the marx brothers meets the three stooges or something. they’re not as funny as keaton or as intellectual as chaplin or the marx brothers. i like their logic and math jokes. this one, like many of their other films, has the andrew sisters in for a few numbers. i could do without the musical interludes.

they hold the flag for the military here which is pretty much to be expected given the time period. amazing how much hollywood was behind that war and not so much with the others. maybe hollywood is more discerning than some would think.
