Underrated Abbott and Costello film which concerns the boys going to Alaska to assist a firned. Wittier than other entries, maybe because longtime A+C scribe John Grant did not pen the screenplay, and makes very good use of Alaskan locales

Watch Lost in Alaska and you will find out why these guys were called the Kings of Comedy. Abbott and Costello try to help their new-found friend reunite with his true love and recover his Gold. They end up careening out of control across Alaska on the world's fastest dog sled and getting into all kinds of trouble.

Lost in Alaska contains some of Abbott and Costello's most clever comedy routines that you won't see in their other movies. Just the part where Costello battles with an alarm clock is worth the price of the video.

And of course there are some of those ridiculous situations that could only work in an Abbott and Costello movie - like an igloo with a kitchen sink and a giant slingshot that launches frozen fish.

In old San Francisco a fire company passes by and two rescue a drowning man (he has lost the love of Rosette). Their comic skits go on with variations on arithmetic. They all get a laugh from the newspaper story. Next they land at Skagway. Nugget Joe finally meets Rosette the singer. Stillman explains his plans: Rosette marries Joe, then inherits as his widow. Gold can change people. George has beginner's luck at roulette, then loses it all. Next they will travel to an Eskimo village (to continue comic skits). An accident releases their dogs, they are lost in Alaska.

George and Tom don't have luck fishing. They are rescued. George tries whale meat. There is a dance and singing. Tom and George fight so Joe and Rosette can escape. The search among the igloos recalls the game of cups and a hidden ball.
This must be the least funny of their movies. The comic skits are good, but the story is poor.
