Animal Protector, a review by GSyren
(From Reviews and ramblings by Gunnar on January 12th, 2014) Road to Singapore, a review by Danae CassandraRoad to Singapore Year of Release: 1940 Directed By: Victor Schertzinger Starring: Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Dorothy Lamour Genre: Comedy, Romance, Musical Overview:Road to SingaporeSingapore was the initial entry in the legendary Hope-Crosby-Lamour Road series that delighted movie goers for over 20 fun-filled years. My Thoughts: This is a fun bit of funny, escapist fluff. Our heroes, two chaps looking for nothing but good times, run away from marriage, work and high society to live as island bums. There they meet a girl who just might make them change their bachelor ways, if only she didn't make them both feel that way. The jokes are funny, and Crosby and Hope have great chemistry together and their banter is clever. Lamour works well with both of them, and is probably about as believably exotic as they were going to cast in 1940. It feels like there are a lot of songs for the short runtime, but other than that, no complaints. If you're looking for an amusing little film, and you like old movies, Bing Crosby and/or Bob Hope, this isn't a bad choice. Bechdel Test: Fail Overall: 3/5 (From Road to Singapore on May 18th, 2014) Angel Marathon, a review by addicted2dvdAngel: Season 3 14.
