Routine war film
5 April 2023
I gave up three-quarters of the way through the film after getting fed up with the characters supporting James Drury, several of whom I found annoying. Curiously only Sergeant Cooley showed any beard stubble, with everyone else remaining perfectly clean-shaven - they weren't that young!

Early on, when the patrol gets ambushed and one recumbent soldier appears to be hit, two or three of his colleagues withdraw barely crouching. And when the three men down by the pond are told they're in a minefield, they work their way back huddled together so that were a mine to explode it would kill or injure them all.

I gather that towards the end there's a good action scene, but I couldn't be bothered to wait for that.
