I was looking forward to seeing this movie, and had anticipated something along the lines of "The Fighting Seebees" and "Wake Island". Unfortunately I was wrong.
The movie is basically a series of actual newsreel segments, pasted together by 2 main plot devices, a love triangle, and a comedy skit using 3 of the actors.
Interest is only maintained by wanting to see the next newsreel clip, other than that, we are less than entertained by wooden acting from cardboard characters. The "action" photography of drivers on big bulldozers is laughable, the actors looking everywhere but ahead, and bouncing around on set chairs.
Overall a very disappointing effort, and a movie that only a fanatic should contemplate buying.
