Film Threat Review

I have to admit that I pretty much have always felt that either Bing Crosby or Pat Boone was the whitest guy in the history of the world. To Bing's credit he could actually sing and act, but there still never seemed to be much soul there. I was a kid ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at Film Threat Review

At-A-Glance Film Reviews

The Road to Morocco is probably the best movie the Bob Hope-Bing Crosby-Dorothy Lamour team ever made. It is about two shipwrecked "gentlemen" who drift to Morocco where beautiful Dorothy Lamour loves Bing Crosby, but the stars say she must marry Bob ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at At-A-Glance Film Reviews

Movie Mirror (Sanderson Beck)

A ship explodes, and stow-aways Orville (Bob Hope) and Jeff (Bing Crosby) survive on a raft. On shore they find a camel and sing "Road to Morocco." Jeff tells Orville to act like an idiot to get food. They eat at a restaurant, and Jeff sells Orville as a ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at Movie Mirror (Sanderson Beck)

Widely considered the best of Bing Crosby and Bob Hope's "Road to..." collaborations (this was #3 out of 7 in total), Road to Morocco is indeed a very funny movie that shows off Hope and Crosby at their best. Hope shines above all as the funnier of two ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at filmcritic.com

Doug Pratt's DVD Review

The Bob Hope and Bing Crosby desert classic has the usual mix of tomfoolery and songs, made enduring by the impeccable comic timing of the leads and the general vaudevillian atmosphere of the production. Dorothy Lamour co-stars in the 1942 feature, ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at Doug Pratt's DVD Review

Decent Films - faith on film (Steven D. Greydanus)

The third of the well-known Road movies starring Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, and Dorothy Lamour is perhaps the best. Lighthearted and nonsensical, sophisticated but not overplotted, Road to Morocco represents the point at which the Road-movie formula had hit ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at Decent Films - faith on film (Steven D.

Fantastic Movie Musings and Ramblings

Believe it or not, I will be covering all the Road pictures as part of this series. Though this may be surprising, it's not totally unexpected. If there's anything innovative about these movies, I'd say it was that they took not taking themselves ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at Fantastic Movie Musings and Ramblings

The SF, Horror and Fantasy Film Review

This was the third of the Bob Hope-Bing Crosby Road films, which were all light-hearted spoofs of various types of adventure and musical forms. Various other entries took the two of them, usually accompanied by Dorothy Lamour, along The Road to Singapore ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at The SF, Horror and Fantasy Film Review

Bob Hope is Orville and Bing Crosby is Jeff, two stowaways who end up shipwrecked and broke in, well, Morocco, where do you think? Dorothy Lamour then makes her customary appearance as the princess who seduces them both, whilst fighting off the angry ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at eFilmCritic Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews (Dennis Schwartz)

The third of the Bob Hope-Bing Crosby Road films ("The Road to Singapore"-1940 and "The Road to Zanzibar"- 1941) is a featherweight slapdash spoof of another Third World location, that features a talking camel among its many silly set pieces (at the ...read the complete Road to Morocco movie review at Ozus' World Movie Reviews (Dennis Schwartz)
