Russ G @RT78760655 Jul 6 Charles Laughton was a good actor who played Royal Navy Captain Bligh a decade earlier opposite Clark Gable. Casting him as an American admiral here was just dumb.

ODD war movie about an old ship that's brought back into action and the collection of salty seamen collected to run it. It runs as a very straightforward, straight laced war movie until the half way point, until they rescue 2 women and 20 babies and THEN it becomes this weird lighthearted comedy about the babies on the war boat. It tries to veer back on course in the third act, but you can tell it's trying desperately to balance itself out (there's more sublots of a soldier returning for duty after many years, and uh. Charles Laughton! But it's all somewhat hopeless. Obvious ending here, Not worth yo.r while, See more Grant S @grantss 06/05/2010 Fine WW2 naval drama. Not entirely realistic, and a touch overly sentimental, but still good fun and well worth watching. See more Read all reviews
