Movie Reviews

Dispatch-Tribune Newspapers - 6/10 by Steve CrumFine WWII propaganda rouser starring Grant and Garfield.
User Review - 10/10 by Brienne HIt will have you on the edge of your seat. Fantastic! Grants best war time movie!
User Review - 10/10 by Iona CBrilliant reinaction of life in a Sub. True team spirit, comradeship and family elements as the men pull together to fight for each other, their loved ones and the sanity of the world. Highly recommended!
User Review - 10/10 by Cyrus CDestination Tokyo is an enjoyable film. It is about providing information for the first air raid over Tokyo, so a U.S. submarine sneaks into Tokyo Bay and places a spy team ashore. Cary Grant and John Garfield gives excellent performances. The screenplay is well written. Delmer Daves did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed this motion picture because of the adventure. Destination Tokyo is a must see.
User Review - 10/10 by Greg Wone of my favourite WWII movies made during WWII amazing cast that could have only happened during the studio system.
User Review - 8/10 by Allan CWell made, suspenseful WWI submarine film of ship captain Grant taking his sub into Japanese waters. Raoul Walsh know how to direct a tight film and choreograph solid action, and this film is no exception. Good supporting cast too, with John Garfield, Alan Hale, and John Forsythe in his film debut (although he did have an uncredited role in "Northern Pursuit", also directed by Walsh).
User Review - 8/10 by Christian PDestination Tokyo was such a successful piece of wartime propaganda that it reportedly inspired Tony Curtis to volunteer for real-life submarine service. Despite the schmaltzy reminders of how wonderful Americans are (there are three pauses for prayer) and a few lectures on how evil the Japanese are (apparently their language has no word for romantic love), the film comes across as earnest and entertaining thanks to strong writing and direction from Delmer Davies and a great supporting cast filling out the usual mix of genial personalities in a wartime movie. Particularly good are John Garfield as the skirt-chasing tough guy and Robert Hutton as the green kid.
User Review - 8/10 by Tara Wfantastic classic, cary grant does a good job
User Review - 8/10 by Venieza THow can you pass on this, Cary Grant as a American sub skipper on a secret misson to Tokyo Bay. OK it may be a little hokley by today's standards, but it was the "hot stuff" back during the war. I a nice job to John Garfield and Allen Hale, too!. . . .
User Review - 8/10 by W A Y N EKinda dull until the last half of the movie then it keeps you on the edge of your seat like most better Sub movies.
