GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

marcslope Warners borrowed Jane Powell from MGM in 1953 and put her in a Doris Day kind of role, as an up- and-coming Broadway leading lady starring in Sam Levene's not-very-integrated-looking musical. Together they charm sailors Gordon MacRae, Gene Nelson, and Jack E. Leonard (trying to be Jackie Gleason, the Fat Funny One) into investing, and turn an out-of-town flop into a Broadway smash. Not an original story by any means, but it's lively, and the Sammy Fain-Sammy Cahn songs are good. It seems stinting of the screenwriters not to write in a girlfriend for Nelson, who has two spectacular tap numbers, and the no-name supporting characters (Georges Givot as a temperamental Ezio Pinza-like basso, somebody else as the sarcastic secretary, somebody else as the doofus playwright) don't have much interesting to do. But the songs and dances are really lively, and it's a chance to see Levene playing a Nathan Detroit-like schemer at the top of his form. MGM was making better musicals, even Warners was, but this one's an unpretentious good time.

atlasmb Jane Powell and Gordon MacRae, supported by Gene Nelson and Jack E. Leonard, are the stars that carry this musical comedy. Powell displays real beauty (accented by some sharp fashions) while singing and dancing up a storm. MacRae's voice may be the best part of this film.Jack E. Leonard appears in his first film. A stand-up comic better known for his appearances on television variety shows like "The Mike Douglas Show" or "The Merv Griffin Show", Leonard displays great energy and a surprising lightness on his feet.The film is about the evolution of a stage musical that is backed by some sailors (and later, some marines). It starts off as a dog, but eventually becomes a hit. The film takes a similar path; it is only in the final act that "Three Sailors" feels like a solid piece of entertainment.Look for Merv Griffin himself as a sailor. Burt Lancaster contributes a comic cameo.As musical comedies go, this film is a lightweight, but it has moments that are entertaining.

edwagreen You might as well have brought out Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland for this one. Sailors on leave get involved with Jane Powell in staging a Broadway show. There is even an over extending of the percentage owned by the show. This was certainly to the 1968 smash "The Producers."Jack E. Leonard is in fine form as Porky, a portly sailor who can really dance and do some singing. Gordon McRae is Choir Boy and he is equally matched with Gene Nelson.The song and dance routines are solid by the plot is so predictable and worn out already in movies.Thirty days of shore leave for the navy guys. They should have extended the leave for the entire picture.

w22nuschler This is a movie I had never seen until tonight and I loved it. Jane Powell is on loan from MGM in this Warner Brother comedy musical. This was the first time we get a great look at Jane Powell's beautiful figure. Gordon Macrae, Gene Nelson & Jack E. Leonard play the sailors on leave that try to help her out. The story starts out with Jane and her lame manager trying to get her a job. She does a song and dance that does not impress. Her manager removes the bottom of her dress and we get to see her beautiful legs in a short red dress. He throws them out. The sailors see her as she leaves and they like what they see. The sailors have fifty thousand to invest and her manager wants them to invest in her career. Gordon falls for Jane when she sings a song on the way to an audition. She sings a wonderful song with Gordon Macrae. I think it's called "When It's Love". The next day Jane rehearses wearing a very sexy and short blue dress. Later she gets really sexy during a scene on stage. She does a scene with Jack E. Leonard. Jane has on a white fur coat and quickly removes it to reveal a sexy black sequined swimsuit. She looks so sexy in that outfit and she has a perfect pair of legs! Soon they all find out the show they are backing is not good at all. Gordon buys the show and Jane's contract. She does a sexy number in another sequined bathing suit. He gets his buddies and the army guys to chip in. They go around looking for producers and tell them to help them because the services are backing the show. Next she performs for the producers in a white bathing suit outfit. Gordon gets a little big headed because he is running the show, but Jane sets him straight. They end up in trouble and sell the show to her manager who started all the trouble. I found this film on the WB shop site. It was a really nice surprise and a really good film. Jane Powell really show sex appeal here and I'm bit sure why she was not used in these kind of roles more often.
