Betty Grable in boxing gloves, enough said. Favorite pin-up girl of G.I.s during World War II, she confirms in this film why her popularity somehow never translated to film for me. This movie is filled with cloying, hyper song-and-dance numbers that hit you in the face like boxing gloves. Still, you must see this to believe it. "How Come Ya Do Me?" is jaw-droppingly Marilyn Monroe-before there was Marilyn Monroe. --from Musicals on the Silver Screen, American Library Association, 2013
