Without the talent of Bob Hope this picture would be one dull thud.

Reviews for They Got Me Covered
It drags in some critical phases, it labors in obvious spots and the climax is too manufactured. But there are side-splitting moments in it.
Hope is in his element, and it is impossible not to be swept along by the enthusiasm of his performance.
