Amazingly bad, considering the cast. - The Pirate review by MS
We couldn't watch it to the end -- in spite of the excellent cast, the script was badly written, the choreography boring, and the whole effect charmless. I normally adore Gene Kelly, too, and quite like Judy Garland -- all the more surprising at how bad this was.
