Well, the captain has taken 4 years to make the trip between LA and NY but all our same two sailors (Kelly and Sinatra) are again on leave, joined by a third buddy rather "primitive". Personally, this movie is better than "Anchors Aweigh". It's fast-paced, very funny and the NY area is more stimulating than LA. I would never expected but it gives me good laughs (the museum dance, the terrible roommate, the pearl dance). The running after the one is an original idea and it offers even a car chase in a amazing shining taxi. Watching those old movies should be mandatory because you discover the roots for our time and the inspiration of today filmmakers (Lynch, Burton, Spielberg, Zemeckis). And for those who mourn NY without the twin towers, remember that as the time of this movie they weren't even a memory on the skyline. As illustrated in the final sequence of the movie, life is a perpetual start again and will always triumph!
