8/10
Pretty funny

This is the fifth in a series of seven "Road" done by Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, and Dorothy Lamour. I really like the first six movies in the series. Sure it is underdone by today's standards and the comedy and acting is old school. I find that to be refreshing compared to the comedy movies of the current time line. The three Weire brothers come very close to stealing the movie. They are good musicians and obviously worked very hard on their routines and they are funny as well. The Andrews Sisters show up almost like an after thought. They are a treat to watch when they sing and once in a great while one or more of them actually gets to act a little. I love the guy with the huge stache who leads the cavalry charge and has the big voice!!! The whole plot of the movie is B & B saving the heiress from the bad guys and of course they get it done.
