Orders are Orders

(GB 1954)    

An army barracks is invaded by a film unit making a science fiction cheapie.
Weak army comedy with little logic or sense, taking advantage of some familiar radio personalities of the time, some of whom became major stars - in better films than this one.

ORDERS ARE ORDERS (1954). Before Carry On, Before Clouseau, Before even Hancock's Half Hour, Messrs. James, Sellers and Hancock were all in the same little film. No comedy classic, but an interesting item just for that.
