This film was panned by the critics at the time because of it's pro US involvement in Vietnam propaganda. However, if you ignore the propoganda, you are left with a very exciting war film.
There is plenty of noisy action, John Wayne plays the same part that he's played in all his war films. There is his usual blend of noisy action, sentiment and corny humour.
John Wayne fans will love it!

Get Off Your Horse An'...Review created: 04/03/07

I've tried to watch this film MANY TIMES when it's been on the TV but - without fail - I've always fallen asleep about midway. I tend to waken when it's all over or at that moment that the bloke steps into a boobytrap and swings into the punji sticks. I therefore can only rate this film according to the rest of the film that I patiently sat through.
However I consider it, I can neither regard this film as entertainment nor as educational. It's force-fed tablespoons of McCarthyesque propaganda and a cure for insomnia (at least, for me) at best.
I don't know if I consistently fall asleep because it's an over-long film (doubt it: 3+ hour films aren't usually a problem), it's boring (seems incredibly likely) or because I mentally "switch off" because of the "in your face", "eat it and like it" xenophobic propaganda.
I think you'd have to be a Marrion Robert Morrison fan to spend good money on this film. Hypocritical of him to encourage lads to go to war when he married to stay out of one (divorcing within 6 months of the end of WWII)...
