Feb 09, 2021Following the typical path of combat film, first we are introduced to our WW2 platoon on a Pacific island (with more than the usual amount of scorn heaped on the unfaithful women back home) until we traipse out into the jungle on a dangerous recon mission. There are a couple of highfaluting ideas floated around about hierarchy and the class system, the brotherhood of man, and the ruinous debilitation of combat on the human psyche - but they seem more for a book's discussion than for a movie, even as presented. The leads all do well.
