Slow paced Docu-Drama has Cagney in fine form. Stick with it if you can. On Blu-Ray.

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.

Jimmy's fine but this is plodding and dull.

The film explores the psychology of the principle actors in the naval battle for Guadalcanal in late 1942, from both American and Japanese perspectives. It's not Tora x 3: battle sequences are experienced from inside the bunker, or in Bill Halsey's mind back at HQ while his friends are in the thick of it. One of the very best (& under-appreciated) WWII pics.

This movie is well done but as the description says it is a "docu-drama" and definitely not an action film. There are no depictions of battle. The film follows the strategies and decisions of Admiral William F. Halsey after he took over command of the South Pacific Forces when it was looking like the Japanese would prevail at Guadalcanal. It is strange at some points watching the Admiral sweat out his decisions as he waits for news from the battle front. I enjoyed the movie because of the insight it gave into the Navy's point of view at Guadalcanal. I watched "The Pacific" last year which detailed some of the Marines' experiences there and I caught some of the common references like "Washing Machine Charlie" the Japanese pilot whose nighttime attacks were meant more as a method of preventing sleep than to amass casualties.
