Despite the presence of Allan Jones, this one is little more than an average little war-time propaganda musical. To say that the script is indifferent would be kind-hearted.
Director Edward Lilley's only claim to fame here (beyond a brief spot on-screen) is that he obviously likes to end each scene with a punch- line before the fade-out or dissolve. Unfortunately, the punch-line invariably lacks punch, and Mr. Lilley's obvious attempts to draw attention to it makes it even less worthy of attention. Although, Mr. Jones is certainly in good voice, the musical numbers are almost totally undistinguished.
Never mind! At least production credits are smooth and the support cast capable.
