Helen Lowell, as the old lady, is a live action version of tweety bird's owner All she is missing is the bird and cage. There really isn't a lot of Merman here She is more a red-herring in the plot than anything else. Of course, all sorts of visual comedy takes place, turning it into a fast-moving and laugh-filled ending.

The two big production numbers are topped by a riotous finale (later used in 'Abbott and Costello in Hollywood') where Cantor tries to flee from the rackateers (one of whom is William Frawley, aka Fred Mertz) by escaping on a rollercoaster. Merman also sings a torchy number (with chorus) at the beginning that is well photographed but not at all in the same league with her big number.

Audiences familiar with Merman's later Broadway, film, and TV appearances will find it amusing to see young Merman (then 27) in old lady disguise. Merman and Cantor also sing a duet while on a ferris wheel which shows them with old-age make-up.

And when the bevy of chorus girls (thanks to the obvious presence of other chorus girls beneath them) start a dance while sitting on the floor, the number goes into the Hollywood musical books as one of the wackiest production numbers in film history. Cantor's 'The Lady Dances' production number at the amusement park is very elaborate, although it is Merman's 'Shake It Off With Rhythm' that stands out here especially with the dancer whos shadow in the well-polished nightclub floor does her own steps. Other choreographers took over the reigns for his last three Goldwyn pictures, and here, Roy Del Ruth gets the job. There are several memorable production numbers which use the Busby Berkley style flare for overhead shots previously used in the Cantor musicals which Berkley choreographed: 'Whoopee' 'Palmy Days' and 'The Kid From Spain'.

When Cantor manages to show a little more verve in front of the old lady and her daughter (Sally Eilers, a sadly forgotten actress), he is offered position of manager of the park, and celebrates with his pal by visiting his favorite singer, Georgia (Ethel Merman) who flirts with him in order to get him to install the pinball machines for her gangster friends. It seems that the previous managers have all met with fatal accidents thanks to a racket that wants to install pinball machines in the park against the old ladies wishes. Always typecast as the scaredy cat milquetoast, Eddie Cantor continues in that mold here as a laundrymat employee who ends up becoming manager of an amusement park owned by a feisty little old lady (Helen Lowell). While certainly not as much of a classic, it is certainly entertaining enough to warrant study in this era of Adam Sandler/Jim Carrey comedys. Even Leonard Maltin gives this a low rating compared to the three stars (out of four) he gives to the other Cantor films.
