CodyZamboni 07/26/2023 Amusing light comedy about two military guys, Glenn Ford and Eddie Albert, finding purpose and meaning in life from bonding with Okinawan villagers, post WW2. Marlon Brando, miscast yes. But he's the heart of the movie. And he gives his all, and shows deft comic timing in an entertaining performance. See more 05/20/2022 So Good!

See more steve d 07/21/2020 Little story and weak attempts at humor See more 10/08/2019 I was completely entertained for the entire 2 hours of this movie; not much is funnier than Marlon Brando impersonating a Japanese islander. Glenn Ford also puts on an exceptional performance in this movie. See more 07/23/2019 Brando is perfect in every respect. He put in the time to discover the accent native Okinawans would have had when they tried speaking English. His approach was a 360 degree understanding of the character and plot, and it showed masterfully in his performance. People who have lived on Okinawa can tell you Brando's accent is spot-on perfect for the role he plays. His mannerisms and his role in the village were learned because he paid attention to his roles and took them seriously. Brando was one of the first Hollywood actors to act, rather than to impersonate himself. Instead of taking the easy out, Brando always fully engaged, and it made each film he did all the more authentic. See more Read all reviews
