That's 15 minutes of my life I will never get back. I'm going to spend 5 more minutes though, warning people...this movie is awful.
If you are considering this movie and think it might be ok because you recognize a couple of the actors names please don't be fooled....this movie is awful.
You may watch the first scene, and think...yeah, ok isn't that convenient that the Japanese ran out of bullets at the same time as the Americans, so they all decided to fight hand-to-hand or with knives....maybe if I just suspend disbelief a little this movie won't be awful?
But then you see the lead character hitting a punching bag, which of course, he his so hard it comes off its moorings because...well, obviously he's a bad mother .....hush you mouth! Then our hero goes in to see one of those infamous WW2 "hippie generals"....you might start to question, is this movie going to be awful?
And then you'll see our hero's "bedside manner" on full display in the OR, as he settles down a wounded soldier by casually chatting him up about his hometown cuisine while another doctor saws his arm off without any anesthesia...and you'll know at that point, like I did, the movie is awful.
Just in case I didn't make myself clear, this movie is awful. Don't waste your time.
