Full Plot Details

During WWII, the United States set up army bases in Great Britain as part of the war effort. Against their proper sensibilities, many of the Brits don't much like the brash Yanks, especially when it comes to the G.I.s making advances on the lonely British girls, some whose boyfriends are also away for the war. One Yank/Brit relationship that develops is between married John, an Army Captain, and the aristocratic Helen, whose naval husband is away at war. Helen does whatever she needs to support the war effort. Helen loves her husband, but Helen and John are looking for some comfort during the difficult times. Another relationship develops between one of John's charges, Matt, a talented mess hall cook, and Jean. Jean is apprehensive at first about even seeing Matt, who is persistent in his pursuit of her. Jean is in a committed relationship with the kind Ken, her childhood sweetheart who is also away at war. But Jean is attracted to the respect with which Matt treats her. Despite Ken and Jean getting engaged during one of his leaves, Jean and Matt continue to see each other and fall in love. Beyond the issue of Jean's mother's disdain for Yanks and Ken and Jean's engagement, Matt and Jean still have to overcome the differences between the two worlds in which they live. Regardless, the goings-on of the war may override any of their immediate wishes.

Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Jon MatsumotoSome may find parts of Yanks slow going. The lengthy film would have benefited from additional editing. Nevertheless, it is an emotionally and visually compelling work that will not be easily forgotten.
Newsweek - 6/10 by Jack KrollYanks never succeeds, however, in making these three stories urgent or especially moving.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Gary ArnoldSomething is missing, and you feel that its absence prevents both the characterization and movie from going decisively over the top.
The Seattle Times - 6/10 by John HartlDirector John Schlesinger has done a beautiful job with both cast and craft in Yanks, a multiple love story set in England in World War II. Yet little that's exciting ever happens in the picture.
Entertainment Weekly - 5/10 by Lawrence O'TooleThe sketchy story simply isn’t strong enough, nor the characters sufficiently involving, to sustain interest for nearly 2 1/2 hours.
Video-Reviewmaster.com - 4/10 by Steve CrumBig looking, expensive, production starring Richard Gere is hardly worth it.
User Review - 10/10 by Terry CThis is one of Gere's best. A must see for all fans. Gere is superb with a great supporting cast. The story is set in WWI just before D-Day where Gere falls in love but can't commit for fear of not coming back. This one will tear at your heart strings. Watch on a rainy day and just let it take you back in time to feel what it must have been like with all the fears and uncertainties.
User Review - 10/10 by Nefert Manother of my favorites.. love lisa Eichorn.. the accent knocks me over... great cast and a very touching movie... i am glad i did not have to live through that war
