Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for music lovers and crime fans. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. A good follow-up to Mary Poppins or Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Breezy, at 1 hr 31 min.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1950: an older pace and style.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

Singer Steve, friend Seymour and fiance Jane, along with her dizzy blonde room mate Irma, have a series of misadventures on a California-bound train and end up involved with a gang of murderous gangsters in Las Vegas.
