Extremely ordinary war movie spiced up by genuine combat footage and location photography. Robert Mitchum plays the usual super-tough, super-competent soldier under whose macho spell falls UN aid worker Ann Blyth. The two stars work well together, and are backed up by a strong supporting cast including Charles McGraw and Richard Egan, but even back in 1952 this had already been done a thousand times before. Mitchum's so cool he even wears his tin helmet at an angle, and Ann Blyth looks gorgeous even with that distractingly small chin.
