Movie Reviews

New Yorker - 10/10 by Anthony LaneIts kitschy grabs at the surreal--the scene in a lunatic asylum, where German troops are billeted, manages to be at once implausible and offensive--that blocks any close engagement with the drama. That said, you must see this film for one unstoppable reason, and that is Lee Marvin.
Chicago Reader - 10/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumA grand-style, idiosyncratic war epic, with wonderful poetic ideas, intense emotions, and haunting images rich in metaphysical portent.
Countingdown.com - 10/10 by Larry CarrollA solid war movie with a great performance by Lee Marvin. If you're a war buff, give this one a shot.
Newsweek - 10/10 by David AnsenMarvin's taciturn performance--a moving demonstration of masculine grace under pressure--may be his finest.
Kansas City Kansan - 10/10 by Steve CrumUntil "Saving Private Ryan," this film was the most graphic WWII picture made.
Washington Post - 10/10 by Michael O'SullivanWhat the movie may lack in "Saving Private Ryan"-style gloss, it more than makes up for in authenticity, or, in other words, heart.
Salt Lake Tribune - 10/10 by Sean P. MeansThese places were where Fuller himself served during the war, and he imbues these stories with the same gritty detail he probably delivered telling them over a beer.
Empire Magazine - 10/10 by Angie ErrigoAlthough these are the stock characters of war drama - the sage, grizzled Sarge, the farm boy, the street kid, the nice guy who doesn't want to kill anyone and the witness - Fuller's are particularly credible ordinary people.
New York Daily News - 9/10 by Jami BernardThe combination of old-time Hollywood valor and ahead-of-its-time surprises makes this restoration a big event.
Seanax.com - 9/10 by Sean Axmaker... if you want a World War II story from a real vet's perspective, Sam Fuller is still the man and The Big Red One, drawn from his own war experiences, is the film
