Cagney plays nicely against type as a soldier in the First World War finding out that he doesn't have the courage to back up his tough-talking attitude. Many regulars from other Cagney vehicles appear here, such as Pat O'Brien as....wait for it....the unit's Chaplain Duffy. It's an easy watch at around 90 minutes, with some great realizations of trench warfare and the inevitable redemption of a character (guess whose).

A classic story of redemption through kenosis (self-emptying). This was a thoroughly enjoyable film and earns nothing but my most emphatic praise.

Interestingly Cagney spends most of the movie playing the coward. He's not the streetwise tough guy you're used to. A very enjoyable early war movie.

Good, but not great. Reasonably one-dimensional. Feels contrived and unrealistic, filled with speeches and gung ho rhetoric. If this movie was meant to be a propaganda film it is odd, as the US wasn't in WW2 at the time it was made. Ending is a tad predictable.

This was very unique as a war story but quite enjoyable, the real-life story of Father Duffy, military priest for a New York-based group of mostly Irish Americans. Weird seeing James Cagney play a disliked, standoffish braggard who ends up being cowardly on the battlefront. Pat O'Brien's outstanding as the main character.
