Amazon.com:
Blake Edwards's delightful 1959 comedy stars Cary Grant as a World War II submarine captain whose preference for a by-the-book command reluctantly yields to certain realities. Chief among those is that Grant's first officer (Tony Curtis, who impersonated Grant that same year in Billy Wilder's Some Like It Hot), a shameless hustler, is better than the navy at delivering whatever supplies the ship and crew need to keep going. But when Curtis sneaks a handful of Philippine refugees and several gorgeous nurses onto the all-male sub, the skipper not only has to cool down his crew but deal with an unexpected feminine influence on ship protocol. The film is a great deal of fun, sprinkled with the director's trademark sight gags (including one of Edwards's best, involving a torpedo and jeep), and graced with his unmistakable lilt. Grant is in great form, his comic brilliance almost impossibly effortless. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Submarine war adventure with comedy
I always did love Cary Grant and Tony Curtis - put them together in this movie and you have a something to laugh about - crusing around the pacific ocean in war time - on board of all things a pink submarime and what they got up to in getting her ready just to keep her afloat - here to the Seatiger and all the crew who rode in her - or as some would say here to all submariners may they keep our oceans free and safe.

I just love this movie if you haven't seen it and are a grant fan i would recommend you see it.
Rating:  - Must see Clasic!
This is a must see for any Cary Grant fan. Five nurses on a sub labeled a pig boat , you have to see seeman Hornsbey to appreciate the humor in this line.
Rating: - operation petticoat
I love this movie. I have been looking for it for quite awhile. It arrived promptly and in good condition, played beautifully.
Rating: - Pink Petticoat <= as so stated by my mom
Hilarious movie. A must own for Cary Grant fans. Great humor for those in similar predicaments. Or those with family in those situations. A great laugh to take the edge off. This show has the only pink submarine I've ever seen, which is all part of its humor a one of a kind show.
