The Hook is a long look at war from the initiation of hostilities to the victorious end. It's set in the Korean War, but an opening title gives an explanation: this is an example, and the subject is "men in war" not "men at war". The casus belli and the postwar consequences are nowhere discussed. (cmulrooney.tripod.com)

The Hook is not a war film, even though it takes place during the Korean war. It uses a battle, and the orders of a superior officer to set the parameters of the conflict. The conflict is not with the enemy but instead with their moral compass and each other. There were times I thought the movie went a little overboard to create tension, but overall, I enjoyed the film.
