Aside from Cagney's gritty performance, the subdued biopic, shot in black-and-white and in an episodic semi-documentary style, lacks oomph and muscle.

One of the last of the old school war films, which emphasized patriotism, teamwork, and sacrifice. This one had a strange but intriguing storytelling style, but the Japanese parts were screwed by the use of voice over narration instead of subtitles.

Jimmy's fine but this is plodding and dull.

Could have been a play. The sets were horrible. Very little filmed outside, so it came across as though it was done on a Hollywood back lot. Way back.

In October 1942, Vice Admiral William "Bull" Halsey assumes command of Allied forces in the South Pacific. His task is a daunting one - ground forces on Guadalcanal are close to being over-run and the US Navy is outnumbered by its Japanese counterpart. What follows is the most desperate period in the Pacific War, and a series of battles were vital to the outcome of the war. A must-see for fans of WW2 history. A docu-drama told in great, meticulous detail. Probably too dry for someone not interested in or familiar with military history, but great for those that are. The movie gives a great insight into the dynamics of the Guadalcanal campaign, how close the US was to losing it and Halsey's part in the victory. Not perfect though. There's no action scenes - even some stock footage of ships firing or planes in combat would have made the battles seem more real. While mostly very accurate, some liberties have been taken with history, e.g, the timing of the Battle of Cape Esperance vs the shooting down of Yamamato.
