Rating: 4/4 --
A masterpiece. ... Hurtling forward with its dizzying blend of laughs and intrigue, the movie's blessed with a script that's jam-packed with memorable quips (some laced with naughty double entendres), with most of the best ones handed over to Benny.

[D]irector Ernst Lubitsch's classic original gave Jack Benny his one great movie role...
USA Today
Although seemingly played for laughs, there is a depth and multilayered meaning to much of the action and dialogue that led an audience newly involved to consider what part they might play in a world at war.

It's certainly one of the finest comedies ever to come out of Paramount.
