Audience Member Good WW2 Japanese war movie Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Classic, in your face Japanese war film should be required viewing in any history class. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Immensely grim, and sprawling to an extent that the seams show a little bit too much. The movie attempts to cover the entire battle of Okinawa in 150 minutes, giving us little time to get to know anyone, save perhaps for shallow looks into the lives of a few of the officers, and a local barber. The lack of anyone to latch onto makes the movie a little distant and less involving than it could have been. Still, it certainly gives a very vivid and surprisingly even handed impression of the hell this must have been... Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
