A hilarious comedy hit, featuring Jack Hulbert, is described in ads from Southampton to the Shetland Islands. The movie follows Jack's efforts to retrieve a stolen submarine and win the admiral's daughter, Mary O'Neil, in China. With catchy music and rapid pacing, the story is filled with atmospheric naval scenes and a big budget. However, Hulbert's burlesque style, while fine for a short sketch, may prove exhausting in a longer film with little variation in tone or pacing.
Jack Ahoy
A charming sailor, prone to mishaps, takes center stage in this light-hearted musical comedy.
