Much of what would have made this work has faded into history, but it was super daring at the time. There's a lot of funny stuff, but the two leads are such over actors that it can be really annoying, especially Eddie Bracken... he nearly ruins every scene he's in with his loud, obnoxious "Oh the spots!" exclamations.
I don't feel that this is one of Sturges's best as it seems really thrown together, like they had the great premise and didn't know how to get out of it, but it's still worth seeing to know what was considered super risqué for the time.
