Betty Grable is all peaches and cream and spectacular curves as she hulas her way to Hawaii. Song of the Islands also stars one of her favorite leading men, Victor Mature, one of her favorite supporting stars, Jack Oakie, and one of her favorite directors, Walter Lang. Put them all together in glorious Technicolor with plenty of songs, dances and comedy for one of Betty's biggest box office hits. Nothing serious here, folks, but musical-comedy fluff from Fox's backlot at its best. And the number ... Read More

When I watch a musical I want to be entertained and this movie is very entertaining. When you combine the talents of Betty Grable with the escapism of a South Seas set you have a formula of great cinema. Be it a little campy it's campiest at its best.

This movie was slow to the point and lacked excitement. But there was only one scene that I chuckled on, it was when the old hawaiian lady's uncle; chewed on a leg from an animal. As he took a bite, he crunched on the bones of the leg; looking like a wildman with a wild eyed stare at the visitor of the island. Turned out that the old lady's uncle was a cannibal. The only thing that kept this movie from dying out, was the dancing and singing from Betty Grable, and the old Hawaiian lady.

Too good for the folks that thrive on cinematic trash for the trash element (The Blob, Pink Flamingoes)and not campy enough for the Crawford/Davis gang. This is High Hollywood Formula (Check out Weekend in Havana, similar story, almost the same castbut WOW!)
Here's the basics: A stud (Victor Mature) and his lackey drift onto a pacific isle. They meet a ... Read More
