A stinker of a war flick from Young, responsible for one of the best James Bond films Dr. No. Financed by the Unification Church, it is an incoherent, directionless rant set in Korea, a cringe-inducing script raced through by the far from impressive but starry cast. Whenever it looks like running out of steam, another epic action scene is thrown into the mix to detract attention from the fact that no one seems to have a clue what they are doing. - _Zevi Wolmark_
