[edit] Synopsis
In this sequel, the U.S.S. Reluctant is at anchor beside a tropical island. The ship's captain is as much of a "Captain Bligh" as ever. Several of the plots of the film are taken from Thomas Heggen's original novel Mister Roberts such as attacking the Captain whilst he is watching a film and one of the sailor's children dying with the sailor trying to obtain compassionate leave to return to the USA.
