Rating: 70/100 --
It seems that every time Joe breaks into a song, people of both sexes swoon.
Apollo Guide
Rating: B --
Producer Joe Pasternak is not Arthur Freed and director George Sidney is not Minnelli, but this fun and inventive musical, which blends live action and animation, has some good musical numbers, sung by Sinatra and Gene Kelly (who also choreographed).

Kelly is perfect as usual, Sinatra is his ideal partner and the plot never gets in the way of the songs.
