      steve d An entertaining war drama, nothing more or less. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member With hints of pro-army propaganda, this is a positive look at life in the army through a series of events in wartime Italy. It is more thought than gun for the most part, but the story never gets too deep, so it is quite ordinary. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Jean Yothers Orlando Sentinel A humorous, dramatic and highly perceptive war picture. Oct 8, 2021 Full Review Clyde Gilmour Maclean's Magazine Bouncy little Mickey Rooney, whose performances sometimes bore me to pieces, this time is likeable and convincing as a crapshooting G1 in a war story, better than most. Dec 3, 2019 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Mickey Rooney received a well-deserved Oscar nomination for this war drama about American soldiers in Italy Rated: B+ Jun 6, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews
