One of those U.S. WW2 propaganda movies that's primarily interesting because it practically seethes with hatred for the Japanese. Our propaganda machines never play the race card like this anymore

Typical WWII propaganda film. The opening scene was great, exhibiting the racist hate the American troops had for the Japs and hearing the motivations of individual soldiers was quite entertaining... but then it just bogs down to boring WWII melodrama and pretty much goes full frontal in its own patriotic propaganda nature that it's actually rather laughable. As a film, it's not very good. But as a piece of WWII propaganda, quite good.

A war movie which didn't fully come out of its shell. Instead it felt almost like a war documentary in parts with it's dryness. But in a way that also gave the film it's identity. A certain level of reality. Randolph Scott was unspectacular in his role, but a lot of the younger gave it a good shot. Especially young and rugged Robert Mitchum the brief times he was on camera, for his 18th and final film of his debut year in Hollywood. A unpolished war film with bits of positivity sprinkled around.

What a great discovery! Loved this one! WWII film that actually Full Metal Jacket kind of adopts the format. One of the best things i've seen Randolph Scott do.
