I went into this movie hoping for the best. I like wartime musicals in general. Dick Powell and Lucille Ball did good jobs with their roles; however, the writers gave them boring dialog. The love-interest between the two of them was not given any real growth; just suddenly it was there. I did not think much of the music; the best number was the snippet we heard of Spike Jones with "Der Fuhrers Face." The one complete number that Spike Jones did had little of his great musical comedy; pretty tame stuff,even with the monkey. Bert Lahrs comedy skits were interminable.There were parts to enjoy: Lucille Ball was quite a looker, and there was a good selection of bit players who really deserved more time on screen.
Eu entrei neste filme esperando o melhor. Eu gosto de musicais de guerra em geral. Dick Powell e Lucille Ball fizeram bons trabalhos com seus papéis; no entanto, os escritores deram a eles um diálogo chato. O interesse amoroso entre os dois não recebeu nenhum crescimento real; de repente estava lá. Não pensei muito na música; o melhor número foi o trecho que ouvimos de Spike Jones com "Der Fuhrers Face". O único número completo que Spike Jones fez teve pouco de sua grande comédia musical; Coisas bem domesticadas, mesmo com o macaco. As esquetes de comédia de Bert Lahr eram intermináveis. Havia partes para curtir: Lucille Ball era bastante esperta, e havia uma boa seleção de jogadores que realmente mereciam mais tempo na tela.
