    Terrible
    There are a couple of okay jokes, and some of the sets and costumes are pretty. But the dialogue is bad overall, the musical numbers are awful and very anachronistic. Fairbanks' dubbed voice is far beyond belief.

    He also hardly looks the part of a handsome Colonel.

    On the whole, you might bear it once, just to be a completist. But it's rather too silly for words.
