Top Critic Ray milks the comedy element for all it's worth, and the musical numbers are staged surprisingly well by a director mainly known for his gritty dramas.

All the lively song-and-dance routines and steamy shots of a scantily clad Russell can't make up for the crass dialogue and boring melodramatics.

Top Critic An oddity, then, but one distinguished by Ray's characteristic refusal to patronise or glamorise his characters.
