A crusty, war-weary infantry sergeant teams up with a Korean orphan boy and a rag-tag, disheveled group of American soldiers enroute to an abandoned Buddhist temple in order to establish a forward observation post for artillery. Once there they capture a North Korean major who is intent on dividing them along racial lines. Shot on a shoe-string budget in 10 days at the height of the Korean war and the McCarthy era "red scare", The Steel Helmet proves beyond any doubt that director Samuel Fuller had enormous testicles. Very few, if any, Hollywood executives would have taken on the Korean conflict (and the American propaganda machine) with such candor and honesty. If all you know about America's fight with North Korea comes from watching episodes of M*A*S*H on TV then this one is a must-see. Easily one of the best American war films ever made.

Really great Korean War flick from Sam Fuller. Possibly the best Korean war movie ever, although I'd need to do some more research to be sure.

Gritty low budget war movie that takes place mostly on one set. Sharp dialogue and authentic lead actors highlight this excellent early film by the legendary Sam Fuller. Feels more like a play than a motion picture. This is not a feel good movie.

Samuel Fuller's early B-movie classic (shot in 10 days in Griffith Park) is instantly recognizable with its explosive action, hard-bitten characters, and a number of classic moments that are some of the most memorable of any war movie ever made. The simplistic story is uneven - it looses steam toward the middle - but Fuller makes excellent use of his low budget. He would go on to make far better films, even far better war films - 'Fixed Bayonets!' and 'Merrill's Marauders' come to mind - but his hard-hitting style is firmly in place in this early effort.

i didn't think a film like this was possible in 1950's john wayne america; an emotionally honest portrait of soldiers under fire made at the height of the korean war. i have new found respect for sam fuller. this is in the league of paths of glory and bridge on the river kwai. it's outstanding and a must-see for fans of war films. i'd never even heard of this but i'm really glad i watched it
