    I have a soft spot for WWII movies.
    I thought it was in great camp to have the guys in this movie watching Cary Grant in his submarine movie, Destination Tokyo. :D
    As with so many other JW movies, this one is readily available at our old friends, Deep Discount DVD and Amazon (although it is cheaper at DDD).


    It's been almost four years since we posted this in this thread, but it's still current.
    I watched this one a couple of weeks ago with my son, and my previous post still says it all.
    Plus, drug out the Destination Tokyo movie and watched that too.


    Plus, plus, The prices seem even lower at DDD than last I looked ! :teeth_smile:

    GSP,


    I took the liberty of moving your post here to the same named topic in the Duke's Movie Discussions forum.


    I agree with you, it is a good movie and I really enjoy it.


    I thought I remembered that in the trivia section of this movie, on IMDb, there was mention that the film clips are from Destination Tokyo, with Cary Grant. I see that Keith's post above confirms that memory.

    Not hardly!


    Shows you how much critics can be wrong!


    It has to be a pretty bad JW movie for me to consider it a complete waste of time, and I have a soft spot for WWII movies.
