Abbott and Costello join the foreign legion by accident!
18 June 2021
When Bud and Lou, a couple of 'fight promoters', go to Algiers in search of a missing wrestler, their antics provoke considerable hostility from the locals. They decide to seek sanctuary - and end up in the Foreign Legion! But after destroying the forces of a villainous sheikh, the boys are given an honourable discharge.

Standard A & C farce, which means fun, fast-paced mayhem with some good gags like the fish with the dentures. That's a really funny scene. The mirage sketch is really amusing. It's an entertaining fun entry, which doesn't falter from its routine. It's business as usual and the business is good, plus you get Raven-haired siren, Patricia Medina starring as a spy. What a beauty. Walter Slezak is the duplicitous heel, a role he has done a number of times.
