Watch: They Were Expendable 1945 123movies, Full Movie Online – In the wake of Pearl Harbor’s surprise attack, World War II hero, Lt. John Brickley’s experimental squadron of agile fast-attack Patrol Torpedo boats is sent to warm and humid Manila to avert a potentially imminent Japanese invasion. As he and his second-in-command, Lieutenant “Rusty” Ryan, desperately try to prove the newly-founded naval unit’s worth, the enemy launches a devastating all-out attack–and despite the PT boat flotilla’s undeniable success–the considerably outnumbered and outgunned American soldiers are fighting a losing battle. Little by little, the Philippine campaign is doomed to cave in, as comrades-in-arms perish in the sea. Is there glory in defeat?.
Plot: Shortly after Pearl Harbor, a squadron of PT-boat crews in the Philippines must battle the Navy brass between skirmishes with the Japanese. The title says it all about the Navy’s attitude towards the PT-boats and their crews.

Best WW2 movie ever made
I’m in my late 70s and a ‘Brit’ and I’ve watched war films all my life. My father was killed in WW2 flying as a navigator on a Halifax bomber so, although I hate war, I think I have a right to comment.

In my opinion, this movie is, by far, the very best WW2 movie ever made. It is understated in its dialogue and scenes. It is, in some ways, a documentary drama of those days just after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour with utter confusion by the American forces.

It is clear that many of the actors and others involved with the making of the film had served in WW2.

As you watch the movie, notice the number of times when actors move away and you don’t hear what they’re saying and the Director leaves it to you to imagine what’s being said.

They can’t make films like this nowadays!
