Amazon.com video review:
Hit the lights! An all-star cast and plenty of big numbers make this
classic 1955 musical a blast. Russ Tamblyn, Vic Damone, and Tony Martin are
three wacky sailors on leave. Debbie Reynolds, Jane Powell, and the
immortal Ann Miller are three girls ready for romance. High jinks ensue.
Miller's character, Ginger, is a nightclub singer, allowing for maximum
dance numbers and costume changes. Yes, it's a big, silly MGM musical
with plenty of songs, jokes, and splashy colors, and it's quite a bit of
fun. Fred Astaire choreographer Hermes Pan provided the at-times
hilariously elaborate dance numbers, and "Hallelujah," the big finale,
is presented in all its original widescreen glory so you won't miss a
cannon. It's enough to make you want to enlist. --Ali Davis
