Title: The Highest Honor indeed
Review: This is one of those rare war films where, as a viewer you are not only treated to a completely moving story and convincing perfomrmances on the part of the actors in this movie as you do knowing that it all happened, that it is all based on a true story.In the year of 1944, 23 British and Australian commandos took part in naval sea raid of disguise and a quick strike plan to blow up Japanese shipping while docked in Singapore harbor. They are taken prisoner by the Japanese when the plan fails, and they learn about another enemy who lives by a different code, who also reacts with "honor", but one that is vastly different than that of any Westerner. An unforgettable and moving war story.A must see if you liked "Das Boot" or any other war film with powerful portrayals of soldiers at war and the camaraderie and respect as their lives, and the lives of others, depends on all their actions collectively.
