I'm not a huge Robert Ryan fan and this isn't my favorite of Wayne or Ray's either.
Overall it's a pretty typical film of the Gung Ho military genre.
The action scenes incorporate actual war footage which is pretty cool and Ray's editing is marvelous. -

Fine war drama, but not extraordinary in any way. John Wayne gives his usual adequate performance. Robert Ryan does well. Pretty routine stuff and it is predictable. Good production values.

This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Flying Leathernecks" !
