Movie Info

Based both on the play by Irving Berlin of the same name and his musical, Yip Yip Yaphank, this film pays tribute to American soldiers fighting in WW II (though Yip... was aimed at WW I) by providing a plot that includes a big Broadway-like show featuring many musical numbers. The all-star cast includes Ronald Reagan, George Murphy, Stanley Ridges, Kate Smith, Joe Louis and even Irving Berlin himself.

Audience Reviews for This Is the Army

½

This Film has President Ronald Reagan in it, a very talented guy. Its a little while before he appears. Its made during WWII so its not as dramatic as most movies of Combat during that Era. Still with President Reagan in it deserves 3 1/2 stars.
