At times silly, the movie is great for Pat O'Brien and Gloria Stuart's charm. Cagney is still witty, and oftentimes brash. A pre-war movie, we see the USS Arizona in action doing drills and while the crew films onboard. Also of interest, the dirigible USS Macon, sister ship to the USS Akron, reliving an accident where two seaman died holding on to the Akron's mooring line in 1932.
