The film begins with a comic song for cafe, society. The Great Wilbert pops up on stage. He is a magician who escapes from his chains. Wilbert may be the heir to a buried treasure back in Kentucky. So they return to the land of the Winfields and the McCoys. [Was this the inspiration for 'The Beverly Hillbillies'?] Dorothy sings another comic song. There is a funny skit about target shooting. Conflict over the results restart a feud. [This tells about popular culture of that time.] How many can share ... Read More

I agree that this film has some fine gags in it, but it moves with the pace of a vaudville show. Bud and Lou will have a scene, then Dorothy Shay will sing a song, the Bud and Lou, the Dorothy........and so on and so on of about 75 minutes. It isn't an awful film, it just doesn't live up to the standards the boys set for themselves. For the most part they had grown out of this sort of pacing by around 1946, and this film seems to set them back quite a few steps. It took a few films before they'd ... Read More

This could've and should've been one of A&C's funnier movies but whenever things get moving Dorothy Shay starts singing and the movie grinds to a halt. At least Costello mugs his way through most of the songs. The voodoo doll scene is by far the funniest and the scene where the hillbillies crawl into bed with Lou is a hit. Definitely worth a look for fans, but the songs are hard to endure.
