Reviews
'Francis Covers the Big Town' drags on a fair bit, with that said it's marginally better than two of its three predecessors.
The lack of an army-related plot is a big plus, with a visit to New York City as a wannabe journalist making for a decent storyline. As noted, it does lose steam as the 85 minute or so run time ticks on, but I prefer this entry to 1950's 'Francis' and 1952's 'Francis Goes to West Point'.
