Pfc. Alvin Korwin (Jerry Lewis) is working in the kitchen. He and Sgt. Vic Puccinelli (Dean Martin) used to be a song-and-dance act before the army. Their friendship is strained with their different ranks and outlooks. Alvin needs a weekend pass to see his family. Vic wants to transfer to a fighting unit. In the end, they have to perform together in the talent show.
Released as their stardom explodes, this is the legendary comedy duo. More than anything, I don't like that they're fighting with each other. At first, they're mean and angry and not playful at all. I assumed that they're partners in crime against the army from the title. That would have been much more fun. Their chemistry is off and I don't care about any of the other characters. It's still important to see this duo as they develop in cinematic history.
