    One of the good things about Back to Bataan is that it shows the Phillippines Resistance. Don't know many movies about them. The only I've in my mind is The great Raid with James Franco. In fact the Resistance were very strong and occupied some regions during the war. The character of Anthony Quinn was fictional.

    Maybe it's not the best war movie but it's more entertaining than many others.



    What about American Guerilla In The Phillipines with Tyrone Power. Pretty darn good flick itself.

    Always been one of my favorite war movies, period. I think I first saw it as kid at the drive in. And the beginning of the movie, when they attack the POW camp and free the prisoners? Well, I believe that is the supposed to be the same campaign as the movie The Great Raid. You could almost say The Great Raid is the sequel to Back To Bataan.
