User Review - 6/10 by Ken SDecent war film dealing with the desegregation of the US Marines during the Korean War that is watchable, thanks to its good cast, but never truly reaches the heights of excellence to be considered a classic. Poitier plays a black sergeant who is forced to take command of a mostly white platoon when their commanding officer is killed in action. The cast is good, and there are some effective scenes, but it lacks something in the script or direction that holds it back slightly. Still if your looking for an old Hollywood war film, you could do worse.
User Review - 6/10 by Paul DExplores issues of race and leadership using an army squad in a desperate frozen Korean wilderness. The script and performances don't quite reach the depths in which the film style suggests it should. There are certainly elements of 'Paths of Glory put into 'the production.
User Review - 6/10 by Gary SSurprisingly good Korean War film. My dad nearly got sent there when he was in the army so Korean War films have always meant more tio me. Was good that although a lot of the marines were initially prejudiced against the sergeant, they changed their minds when he proved himself.
User Review - 4/10 by Andrew HThis could have been a really good war film which tackled issues such as racism and the difficulties of command. Both issues are tackled but for about 10 minutes throughout the entire film then everyone seems to accept that their sergeant is black and is in command and that they are staying in the farm house. The difficulties of command are only portrayed by a minor, very short fight between Sidney Poitier and Alan Ladd and thatâ??s it really. There is a few action scenes which are not too bad and are frequent enough to keep your attention on the film. There is a bit of an interesting ending to it though and its left up to the audience to decide for themselves if two of the characters lived or died. Sidney Poitier plays the sergeant really well as he has the right persona for the role and to a certain degree Poitier is the only actor who stands out. Alan Ladd should have been given more screen time as he only just gets more screen time than the supporting cast. His acting is also quite wooden and emotionless. I think with more time on screen it could have been improved. Overall, quite poor. This film had the potential to be a really good war film which tackled delicate issues. On a large scale these opportunities were missed. The acting is good from one of its principal actors. The other is not given enough screen time to judge properly.
