      r 9 Yet another yawnful entry from this series, unfortunately. The cast are the only thing about 'Francis Joins the WACS' that is worthy of minimal praise. Donald O'Connor is solid again, Julie Adams is OK and Chill Wills' move into the live-action cast (whilst still voicing Francis) is relatively amusing. Still, the problem remains that Francis feels sidelined in these more recent follow-ups. In fairness, this fourth sequel got one-or-two more minor chuckles out of me - not that that helps raise the film up, as those moments are few and far between amid a myriad of predictability and repetitiveness. You can also imagine the low standard of humour used here, given Stirling joins the Women's Army Corps. Not the worst 'Francis' film, but that's hardly a plus point. 'Francis in the Navy' is next. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Donald O'Connor, Julie Adams, Mamie Van Doren, and others join Francis the Talking Mule in this delightful comedy romp!
