Critic Reviews for Wake Island
All Critics (6) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (1)
It's fairly exciting action cinema... [that] falls apart on the generally anemic, one-note characterisations and the lack of any particularly memorable performance.
Though largely fictionalized, this is a moving report of the defense of the Pacific Island base, with strong emphasis on the heroic gallantry of three Manrines, played by Robert Preston, Brian Donlevy, and William Bendix.
Succeeds in its attempt to dramatize the war effort.
A good, old-fashioned war movie, the kind of movie you watch with your dad on a Saturday afternoon.
Audience Reviews for Wake Island
A bit of propaganda in the midst of the war effort, Wake Island is a passable film. I'm sure it also did its job in selling those war bonds.
