Less a rollicking comedy and more a talent show with a few laughs.

Monte Collins stars in "Sea Sore". However, the story is very slight in this one and the bulk of the short film seems to be on a variety of bad musical acts, including 'Baby' Rose Marie...who isn't at her best in this one.

Collins wants to marry a young lady but her father is against it because Monte is out of work. However, when he is hired for a lowly job on a cruise ship, he makes the most of it...pretending, at first, to be the first mate and later, the captain! Considering he never worked on a ship before, you'd THINK that folks would realize he was faking it...but they believe him...at least for a while. See the film to see what happens as well as how he and the real captain end up naked!

The short either would have been better with more (and better) variety acts OR a stronger story with more comedy. As it is, it's pretty limp in both regards. What's worse is that Collins' song obviously was NOT sung on the ship like the other acts and the background is very cheap.
