| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankePerfectly cast, beautifully photographed and just startlingly good entertainment. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyDisregarding historical facts, this romantic historical adventure was a good vehicle for Gary Cooper, then at th eheight of his career. |
| User ReviewJames HLove Coop! Carroll isn't bad. I used to associate her with B movies, but she's really A class! |
| User ReviewGreg Wi liked to opening sequence of this action yarn it was very neat cooper once again plays the heroic figure this time in war torn China. this reminded me of 'the bitter tea of general yen" w/o katerine hepburn! |
| User ReviewJeff BOkay film by Lewis Milestone that had a ton of potential but unfortunately didn't really work for me. Gary Cooper stars as an American in China who is trying to help smuggle weapons to the helpess Chinese to defend themselves against the evil warlord Akim Tamiroff. While I hate all of these remakes that are going on right now, I feel a remake of this film, if in the right hands, would be excellent. I guess the problem with this is that it went by too quickly, some characters showed up without much explanation and others sort of disappeared. It's got a nice score and the setting is excellent, but this could have been so much better. |
