Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe area of California in which this was filmed bears very little resemblance to the area of Korea in which the story allegedly takes place. Likewise, "Han" definitely looks more Hispanic than Korean. (NOT FOR PUBLICATION: I was stationed about six miles South of the DMZ for 14 months. I know whereof I "speak" on both counts. It's hard for be to believe that there was no Asian boy in California who could have played the part.)
- GoofsWhile walking in the hills with his dog, Han comes upon a Gila Monster, a large poisonous lizard. Gila Monsters are found in the arid deserts of the US and Mexico, not in the mountains of South Korea.
Featured review
Not that bad, for a B rated war movie
I didn't think this movie was that bad. The Korean War is largely forgotten so the proud vets of that war can have pride in watching this. The set and some of the script is a bit tired and worn looking but it adds to the almost camp like atmosphere, which makes this almost a late night B movie classic. Is it a sanitized version of war? Well yea but what wasn't back then? War is awful and senseless, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't pay homage to the brave men who fought for us, even in a war as unpopular as this one, or was this a "police action"? Either way 54,000 men, mostly from the US, gave their lives, knowing that and realizing this was made in a simpler time when Presidents had their sexual dalliances covered up, baseball players hit 61 homers, cleanly, and we were all glued to watching a single Astronaut go into space 15 minutes and thought that was incredible ( and it was in 1961)well then that makes this a good ole B rated memory flick to watch.
