This isn't too bad if you don't mind war time propaganda and like some of the other war movies like Bataan and Guadalcanal Diary. This one was directed by John Farrow and doesn't have any really big stars like Brian Donlevy and William Bendix. The movie starts out right before pearl harbor in which a new captain shows up, played by Donlevy, and some of the men are bored. Some of them want to leave but after Pearl Harbor they all want to stay. Then the Japanese come and start bombing 'em and they are running out of supplies fast. This movie is just like Bataan but it's hard to tell which one is better. It's a decent movie and it's great that they don't make any more wartime propaganda pictures any more.
