102 minute running time so only two minutes over the ideal length … a Stanley Donen MGM movie musical from the mid-1950s … pre-women’s lib … lots of comical fistfights (combined with acrobatic dancing) and kidnapping of womenfolk … silly fun but much weaker than Singin’ in the Rain (which was great). See it if you like musicals, but certainly doesn’t get a green-go rating.
