      Nathanael Hood The Retro Set ...a veritable who's who of Warner Brothers talent. Rated: 7/10 Dec 28, 2018 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com LIke all the Hollywood studios during the War, Warner mobilized its top talent for this song and dance revue, with Bette Davis and Bogart singing and Olivia De Havilland dancing. Rated: C+ Oct 5, 2009 Full Review David Cornelius DVDTalk.com It's all so gloriously unapologetic in its randomness, a cinematic variety show that allows stars to get silly for a good cause. Rated: 4/5 Dec 4, 2008 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews It's vulgar entertainment, but at least there's a few laughs over the stars ribbing each other and doing some acts. Rated: C Oct 9, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

      Micky M on imdb. some idiot said dinah shore songs worthless. dinah was one of the greats. buy a couple of her cds. that will change your mind. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A wartime star showcase with a lot of stars but not that much quality material. The exceptions are Bette Davis, Errol Flynn, and Hattie McDaniel, who prove to be masters of the art of the audience friendly song and dance. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Lee T This typical charity show fluff, but fascinating to see all the stars who donated their performances. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/09/22 Full Review Audience Member Schlocky musical that feature dramatic actors and actresses sing musical numbers. Intersting,, but the lousy story that makes it all hang together is ludicrous. Eddie Cantor, Bette Davis, Olivia de Haviland, etc. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/25/21 Full Review Audience Member The best musical movie ever made! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member good WWII wartime musical to take movie goers off the war raging on.
