Viewing Notes
Setting aside that this is very nationalist, like most American war movies prior to Viet Nam, this is pretty well done with some gripping, brutal battle scenes.
I was expecting a more generically villainous portrayal of American soldiers but they mostly stay away from that and focus on how tough it was for both sides fighting in those conditions.
