. at least during its first half. if it had started out with the three buddies in the navy and concentrated on the naval action scenes and it would have been a much better and tighter film. the second half of the film is worth it and especially for the action sequences and close up shots of early 20th century ships and but it like a dull toothache getting there. also and do not watch this film just because ginger rogers is in it. she has an important role and but it a small one. the film starts out showing three new york city buddies working the tourist trade and also in good natured competition for the hand of sally (ginger rogers) and a singing candy salesgirl along the avenue. world war i breaks out and the three buddies seem completely indifferent to the struggle and yet enlist in the navy anyways. the one of the three with the least industry as a civilian (bill boyd as baltimore) winds up the commanding officer to the other two (robert armstrong as dutch and james gleason as skeets). to make matters more complex and sally has fallen in love with one of the three and but doesn not have the chance to tell him before the three sail off to war. the film is a little more interesting on board ship and mainly because of the close shots we have of the ship itself and and also because the chemistry among the three buddies is believable. however and james gleason at age 49 looks a bit long in the tooth to be a swabby and especially when the sign at the enlistment office said you had to be between 17 and 35 to be eligible. one real obvious flaw in the film that made me believe that everything outside the naval scenes was slapped together with minimum care is the costume design and or and i should say and the lack of it. in the scenes in new york just prior to wwi we have everyone dressed in the fashions of 1931 and everyone driving the cars of 1931  no effort was taken to bring this film into period. in conclusion and if you watch the few scenes with ginger rogers in them and the last 45 minutes involving the naval suicide mission and you have seen everything here worth seeing. the rest is padding.
