Paul Newman's first comedy is a disappointing small-town film, directed by Leo McCarey at the end of his career, lacking energy and wit.

Newman's first comedy should have been his last. Gratuitous and dubious sexuality makes this a poor bet for youngsters.

Some of the gags are elaborate and as carefully timed as a dance sequence.

Top CriticA lame and insipid attempt to satirize suburban life, gender roles, teenage sexuality, and the military.

Rally Round the Flag, Boys! is no epic. But it's good for laughs.

Top CriticIt backfires grandly.

Newman e Woodward parecem estar se divertindo a valer, mas o ingênuo roteiro não permitiu que o filme envelhecesse bem
