Rating: Summary: Standard-Issue World War II Propaganda Review: While watching this film, it may help to remind yourself not to view it through 21st Century eyes. This was made for consumption by a nation at war and, in war, soldiers must dehumanize the enemy in order to kill him. This is what made the casual racism of this and other films of the period (the enemy is referred to as "Jap" and "monkey") acceptable to the general public at the time. Today's audiences may (and should) find the references repugnant.
