Murder-mystery fluff, made for cable and notable only for the fact that it brought the original Six Million Dollar Man, Lee Majors, back to the screen. The plot involves a killer stalking a group of models stranded on an isolated island, but it's mainly an excuse for some tame shots of girls in swimsuits. Majors's return to the limelight is largely undistinguished, and co-star Jennifer O'Neill looks equally uncomfortable with the hackneyed script and insipid direction.

Wartime glamour musical with a stronger reputation than it really deserves apart from Kelly's solos; it does however manage a certain joie de vivre which should not be despised.

I've Seen Better.....
Not one of Gene Kelly's best musicals, but worth a watch anyway.
The story is rather predictable but the songs and dance numbers are a joy (especially the one where Kelly dances with himself).
A nice little musical but not the best I've seen. -
