Abbott and Costello tackle a classic fairy tale in this enjoyable comedy. Aimed more at kids, it still has appeal for adult viewers I think. There are a lot of nice bits of comedy and some pleasant songs. Like the Wizard of Oz, the parts in the real world are filmed in sepia tone and the fantasy part (the bulk of the movie) is in color. Bud and Lou are both having a good time playing outside their usual type of movie and it shows. Lou especially seems into it. The Giant is played by Buddy Baer, younger brother of former heavyweight champ Max Baer. Shaye Cogan and Dorothy Ford are very pretty and likable. Mel Blanc provides the voices for the harp and animals. He's always fun. This was the first Abbott & Costello movie I ever saw. I was a kid then and over the years I've seen many more plus episodes of the TV show. It's a charming movie for kids and adults who don't take themselves too seriously.
