I love the pretext. W.W.II & time travel! What else could one want? Fun movie to watch and some thought provoking stuff too. They didn't spend too much time instructing the extras though. And I bet they didn't do too many re-takes. It appears they did quick shoots with The Navy and unable to re-shoot any scenes. Even so, I really liked the movie; me being a sucker for history, in particular W.W.II. Just watch it for what it is, and enjoy.

I think Mr. Wayne had a great time making this movie. Knowing some of the advisors, I know he did. Typical JW genre. Great machoisim. Well advised and inspired. Mediocre acting by Ross. Again, watch it for what it is and leave it alone.

This movie was made in 1959???!!! My kids just love this movie and learned something of W.W.II, too. Great fun and somewhat hysterical; uh historical. During Vietnam era we had some days as these. A few anyway. The best ones I remember. Kind of takes some of the stress off real war tragedy. Well made and edited. Easy to follow and understand. Can be watched repeatedly. Grant at his usual best with company as "North By Northwest" , "Father Goose" and the like. Great, well made movies the younger fans can understand and enjoy.
