      Matt Brunson Film Frenzy The wartime material is fairly standard (if well-executed), but the simmering theme of racism is honestly handled. Rated: 3/4 Mar 20, 2023 Full Review Clyde Gilmour Maclean's Magazine [A] well-acted drama of love and war. Nov 6, 2019 Full Review Nathanael Hood The Retro Set Kings Go Forth is just more proof that Daves remains one of the most crucially overlooked directors of the classic Hollywood studio system. Rated: 8/10 Dec 28, 2018 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Unconvincing World War II tale that mixes war and a soap opera war romance.

      Paul N Utterly incoherent. They fight the Nazis by day and visit nighclubs (where Tony Curtis plays bebop trumpet) by night. Also, they fight over Natalie Wood, who is supposedly Black. Then they go on a vital mission together, during which Sinatra says, "I'll kill you." Dreck. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/09/23 Full Review Steve D Powerful and surprising in its honesty. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/11/23 Full Review andy h It may not be a stand out of the era, but Natalie wood brings her magic in between the lesser and explosive moments. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It was a well made movie, except the story really didn't make much sense. Was good to pass the time for a few hours. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this movie. A wonderful performance by Frank Sinatra. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Issue of racism played out better than most movies at that time. Sinatra was at his best Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
