"Never Surrender" frustrates with its lack of focus.

It's potent stuff, but the film ... casts an unnecessarily wide net, spending needless time going over the finer points of polo and Ramsey's post-war career with the Hughes Aircraft Co.

Compelling and even occasionally moving regardless of where in the spectrum of pro-war vs anti-war you find yourself. Kudos to director Matthew Hausle and Steven C. Barber for introducing audiences to such a noble and extraordinary American war hero.

Rated: 8.25/10
