      Audience Member This ****ing bullcrap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review delysid d a great companion film to pork chop hill Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/22 Full Review Audience Member ok war pic marks the debut of robert redford Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm surprised this movie managed to get made, given the psychological-tolls-of-war plot which can easily be interpreted as anti-war... Though I guess Endore can be seen as just a 'bad egg' but I think the close up shots and the monologues make him sympathetic. Beautifully shot (or is that just young Robert Redford? *rimshot*), great close ups. Interesting little film that holds up pretty damn well. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting film to see Robert Redford in his first movie and a young Tom Skerritt gritty film about war in Korea rather dated though Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Heavy-handed but solid war Korean war drama. Clearly a slanted anti-war message, but regardless of your politics, there are some great performances and is an engaging story that's tightly directed. It also has the film debut of Robert Redford, Tom Skerritt, and Sydney Pollack. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
