Review by: Ian CooteA character that you wish you could meet
1955 film starring:
Henry Fonda
Jack Lemmon
James Cagney
This is one of my all time favorite war flicks, and there is no battle action!
Henry Fonda plays a character that you wish you could meet. He's someone who is patriotic and wants to serve his country, but he remains one who will battle for his men even when it means he gets in trouble with the captain.
James Cagney plays the William Bligh-like captain and he plays the part to perfection. You know he's doing a good acting job when you hate him so much.
Jack Lemmon is very funny playing one of the laziest people you could ever hope to meet.
All in all, I can watch this movie over and over again. The acting is great, there are some hilarious parts, and it deals with a subject not many movies do, being in the back-end of a big war.
I appreciate Mr.Roberts; I only wish his part wasn't fictional.
I give it a 9 out of 10.
