Lana L Rather slow-moving Force Z attack group, killing their own when they become so badly injured, they can't continue and killing old farmers who happen into their sight range--but not before gaining some useful information. I couldn't help but think of the utter chaos and destruction that the U. S. military and CIA sowed in Vietnam, devastating the country and its people, all for contractor dollars. Low key performances considering their ability to commit cold-blooded murders. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/20/24 Full Review Audience Member During WW II an elite team is sent to locate and rescue the survivors of a shot down plane, stranded on a South Pacific island occupied by the Japanese. One of the castaways is a defecting Japanese official who holds the secret to ending the war, and must be saved at all costs. stars Mel Gibson, John Phillip Law, Sam Neill, Chris Haywood, John Waters, Yu Wang, Sylvia Chang and O Ti. directed by Tim Burstall. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Great war movie based on a small mission in ww2. It also reminds everyone of what a great screen presence Mel Gibson was. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Supposedly based on real missions in which everyone was apparently killed, just how accurate this movie is is anyone's guess. Highlights include the very talented and cute Sylvia Chang and listening to Mel Gibson's Australian accent. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a bad Aussie war movie...Good for a boring Sunday anyways :) Usually when I see WWII movies with Japs you expect gruesome killings but although this had it fair share of death they weren't horrific scenes that make you turn it off... Worth a look for a shoot em up WWII movie...
