Some really good combat scenes
Ended up being a pretty good war film. A bit more acting cred for John Wayne than in his Westerns, which is fine. Some really good combat scenes, by the standards of the time. And Susan Hayward provided the much-needed eye candy. Sitting here in the hyper-polarized polity of today, it’s a little hard to wrap one’s mind around the wartime unity. And yes, I noticed the depictions of Japanese soldiers that are considered racist in today’s oh so sensitive times. But it’s never fair to judge personages or art from the past by a politically correct standard of which they knew nothing. Sort of like criticizing Jesus for admonishing slaves to obey their masters.
