    This is a marvel of a movie from it's time -- a bit stiff as we watch it from our time -- but great, nevertheless
  • February 5, 2008
    this is a pretty solid film. it was a shadow of what i expected, being slow, simple, and without intensity for a film about a mutiny. but the performances were solid and it was entertaining. overall a pretty solid film.

    the problem with this was its length. it was too long for what it was. if it was supposed to be a courtroom drama keep it mostly in the courtroom. the court only came into play in the last half hour and save humphey bogarts acting there were no strong performances up until the la...( read more)st hour! yes, you had to show things on board the ship such as the events with the key and the yellow dye but show them. dont show sea for a whole hour and nothing much else going on. this lacks where a film like damn the defiant doesnt lack. the only good thing about this was bogarts acting

    Bogart is execellent as the obviously psychologically damaged captain relieved by his officers who raise doubts about his fitness to command. One of the great courtroom dramas
  • November 13, 2009
    Excellent film. Humphrey Bogart is brilliant.

    Madness arraises and sanity occasionally lost in this great WWII epic starring wonderful Humphrey Bogart.

    82/100

    Certainly one of Humphrey Bogart's finest performances. He is amazingly good, and it is a pleasure to see him act in this, particularly when it is against type. The screenplay is extremely well done. A fine classic.

    Bogart, MacMurray, Johnson and Ferrer are all excellent in this movie.
  • June 22, 2009
    Humphrey Bogart is brilliant in one of his final performances.

    Humphrey Bogart was such a brilliant actor and his disintegration scene metaphorically here was among one of his best as was MacMurray's snide performance.
