What a waste., 13 January 2004
Author: gary1792 from Crown Point, Indiana

I saw this turkey for the first time last night. I tuned in expecting an entertaining sequel to the classic "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" starring Marylin Monroe and (as in this movie) Jane Russell.

To say I was disappointed is being generous. Alan Young singing? For heaven's sake, what were these people thinking?

The world would be better served if this pile of celluloid was cut up into guitar picks.
