Rating: - A Great Cast
I like Esther Williams movies especially when she is paired with someone handsome, so this was a good combination with Peter Lawford and Ricardo Montalban both; I wish she would have done more films with one of them. I like the Latin dance numbers with Ricardo Montalban and Cyd Charisse, and the storyline is romantic, though the ending is a little abrupt (which isn't surprising with MGM musicals!).

Rating: - Great fun

Take Jimmy Durante, Esther Williams, Kahn, Xavier Cugat and JFK's good buddie Peter Lawford mix them together with great costumes, wonderful dance numbers, all over skin bronzer and orange lipstick and you have a great-if somewhat mixed up-little epic.

I highly recommend this movie. It's very entertaining and romantic! Esther Williams and Peter Lawford, are a lovely couple in it.
Rating: - Classic routines from Jimmy Durante
For Esther Williams fans, there's not much water ballet in this movie, but Jimmy Durante steals the show. His signature songs, "You got to start off each day with a song" and "I know darn well I can do without Broadway, but can Broadway do without me" is a must for any Durante fan.
