a excellent film about a little known raid

Rating: 9/10 (22 September 2005)

I found this movie to be a very good film that touches a subject that we seem to have forgotten the POWs held by the Japanese and how they were treated. We need to remember that WWII was not started by the USA nor where the Japanese mere innocent victims of the Atomic Bombs. The Japanses were in a war to exert their racial superiority and political ideologies over those the conquered. they treated POs with contempt, and disdain killing them with very little thought to the concepts or rules of Western War that the Americans, British, Dutch, and French fought by. Only using the concepts and rules of Feudal Japan.
This story is about a raid made by a company of Rangers to secure and bring home American POWs held by the Japanese. And the assistance they received from the Filapino underground fighters that helped them.
If you ant to watch a movie that will keep you interested, intrigued and on the edge of your seat with excitement and suspense this is a movie you want to see.
