This is a comedy that stars Cary Grant and Tony Curtis. Set in WWII we have submarine Captain Sherman played by Grant whose sub is damaged in a raid by the Japanese. He gets the help from Lt.Holden played by Curtis to get parts for his sub since supplies are hard to find.

But his means are not up to military standards and call for some quick thinking. Also they rescue some female officers on a island that turn his sub upside down. This movie is funny. Some witty lines and funny scenes through out the film.

Cary Grant is excellent as usual. Curtis was very good in this as well. Grant and Curtis worked well together in this. One of my favorite scenes was when they sunk a Japanese truck instead of a ship. Very funny scene.

If your looking for a fun comedy then give this a watch.
