Excellent, Without a doubt!!
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
As an Edward L Cahn movie, you can guess that's not BRIDGE OVER THE RIVER KWAI or FIXED BAYONETS. But I was nevertheless surprised by the darkness of this story telling the mission of a group of GI - during WW2 - who must prevent Japanese army to penetrate into India from Burma. They are dropped by parachute and then have to get help from the natives; and in this tale it is native girls...Of course, you can guess what that means. But it's a downbeat story, very sad in the ending. I won't say more. Just one thing, the characters are not uninteresting.I recommend it.
