It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

A surprisingly good "B" comedy from Columbia starring RKO's "Mexican Spitfire", this is a tale of mistaken identity where Latina singer Lupe Velez arrives in Hawaii and becomes two different characters, both the star of a bond drive. Consuela is the darling of Marjorie Gateson's society, and Lu is the sweetheart of the navy, having won their admiration during a nightclub show where she amusingly imitates Dietrich, Swanson, Hepburn and Hitler. Ms. Velez's impressions are dead on, and it is hysterically funny to see the Furher in a long evening gown. Leo Carrillo plays her social climbing uncle who has no idea that she is also posing as Lu, and for some reason, makes the military police think she's a spy. Lupe finds romance with the handsome Bruce Bennett who is always being stalked by his buddies (which includes a young Forrest Tucker), while Carrillo is a Latino Groucho to Gateson's stuffy Margaret Dumont type matron.Some future stars appear in smaller roles, although according to the cast list, some of them were deleted from the final print. Velez gets more opportunities to steal the scenes here, as in the "Mexican Spitfire" scenes, she was usually upstaged by Leon Errol. At just over an hour, this is just the type of second feature that audiences clamored for during the heyday of Hollywood, and being just right before America got involved in the war, it is also patriotic to the countries already involved. The scarier thought though is that with its Hawaiian setting that within months of the film's release, Pearl Harbor would be attacked.
