Apart from the fact that Victor Mature gets to act alongside of Thomas Mitchell, and the story is set in Hawaii, there is nothing to commend this film. Some of the Hawaiian characters are Americans made up to look Hawaiian. The characters are one-dimensional, and the story fails to engage the audience at any level.
I'm not a Betty Grable fan, but she does look good in a straw skirt, and she has a nice back.
The film is shot in beautiful Technicolor, but it is not a masterclass in colour grading.
I would advise Mature fans to stay away from this film as it comes nowhere near the quality of 'Samson and Delilah'.
