Starring Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Dorothy Lamour, Frank Puglia, Gale Sondergaard

(7-Very Good Film)

Funny. Clever. Zany.

The fifth in the series of Road to…movies, Road to Rio features Bing Crosby and Bob Hope as two musicians on the lamb, who stow away on a ship to Brazil, and get mixed up in a nefarious plot that involves the beautiful Dorothy Lamour. Not the best in the series, but still full of inspired silliness, clever one-liners, and self-deprecating humor. Excellent combination of music and comedy.
