Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

dbdumonteil The warning at the beginning may seem ludicrous for today's,audience:America is always here in the world when countries are "badly " ruled" or threatened by revolutionaries (called "bandits"!!).fortunately the marines fly high and are here to support the "good " natives and save the damsel in distress (here,Lucille Ball,owner of a cacao plantation,coveted (the lady) by the two brave soldiers .There's two good things: -the identity of El Vengador "( who claims his salary !) -the astute way of getting a wrench (with a message ) closer to the soldiers .If you like Dix,do choose "ghost ship"(Mark Robson,1943) instead.

Arthur Hausner With WWII already engulfing Europe, you would think the Marine Corps could help devise a much better film to aid enlistments than this low-budget sparsely equipped film. All you get is a handful of airplanes and a very few marines helping to quash rebellion and banditry in an unnamed Central American country. The equipment in this film pales by comparison with those in films like "Here Comes The Navy (1934)," "Submarine D-1 (1937)" and "Wings of the Navy (1939)." I would think it would have the effect of driving people away from joining the marines. Lovely Lucille Ball is a plus, but once again there is a tedious love triangle involving her, Richard Dix and Chester Morris that detracts from the action that comes later in the film. That action was somewhat exciting, but the film was disappointing in the main.
