Two different entries in the Blondie series featured the future stars of the film noir classic "Gilda". In "Blondie on a Budget", Rita Hayworth played an old rival of Penny Singleton's. Here, Hayworth's four time co-star Glenn Ford gets a chance at screen stardom, which he passed. This trip has Blondie and Dagwood off to visit her aunt and ending up aiding an eloping couple having an issue getting to the altar. Mildly funny, thus isn't the most original of their plots but has enough laughs to be a passable time-filler.
The funniest sequence has Blondie and Baby Dumpling on one train with Dagwood on the other. Having already sold Blondie encyclopedias in an earlier installment, Charles Lane is seen here as an exasperated train conductor. Irving Bacon makes another attempt to deliver the Bumpstead's mail without being plummeted while little Danny Mummert is back again as Larry Simm's foil. Sims steals the scene once again, getting to drive a tractor into a haystack and once again setting up a gag involving a needle. Recurring gags involving dynamite recur throughout the film, and ultimately is utilized to wrap up the weak plot.
