Product: MacArthur (1977)
Rating: 4.0
Good movie, very informative, could have been better
This is a good movie, very informative about MacArthur. I would have liked to seen the 2hr 40min trade screen version because a lot of interesting events have been omitted from this movie that occurred in real life. All in all, its refreshing that at least some people remember the greatest General of the United States ever. His positives and negatives are portrayed in this movie very straightforward. Hollywood has seemingly forgotten about the war in the Pacific against Japan. In the past few years tons of movies have been made about the European theatre with almost zero about the Pacific. MacArthur, the Army, Nimitz, the Marines, and the Pacific and their conflict relationship is quite interesting. I would love to see something to that effect on the big screen (not holding my breathe).
