7/10
One of the best military comedy movie
15 December 2011
Cary Grant and Tony Curtis teams up in this one of a kind comedy about a submarine at sea during WWII.

Submarine Sea Tiger docked at harbor gets attacked by the Japanese, and nearly sinks. The newly appointed executive officer Lt. Holden (Tony Curtis) knows nothing about seamanship, but knows plenty about how to get in the back door of the supply room. The sub is ready to ship out, but not quite shipshape. While going ashore on an island, they discover American women stranded there, and brings them aboard. Plenty of mishaps, and misadventure follows the crew of the submarine. This includes being hunted by US destroyer thinking that the submarine painted in pink is an enemy vessel.

This frequently seen movie never seems to get old. The humor still works in the 21st century. Performance of Cary Grant, and Tony Curtis is one of the best. Scenery set in the south pacific is also beautiful.

One of the finest comedy from the '50s and one of the best comedy Cary Grant and Tony Curtis starred in.
