 I Was Born Fifty Years Too Late ! March 2, 2010

They Were Expendable may arguably be the best John Wayne WW II movie he ever made. After watching Flying Leathernecks I statrted wondering if I could find an old Hellcat that I could go fly, (It turns out those Grummans are very exspensive and suck lot's of fuel). Realizing that I could never afford to go fly on of those magnificent machines I was forced to come to grips with reality and do what any red blooded american fighting male would do, I watched it again with equal enthusiasim! Operation Pacific is most people favorite, In just thought it was okay. Back to Bataan is good in that it chronicals the effort to and for America by Fillipino citizens.
4 Excellent Films February 27, 2010

This set of films is a great value if you're looking for some fine representations of older WWII movies. John Wayne flies, sails, dives, and marches his way through battle after battle, often with the same supporting cast playing slightly different roles.
I found the video and audio to be high quality, and the films enjoyable. Highly recommended.
Huge collection. February 26, 2010

John Wayne WW II in the Pacific January 14, 2010
John T. M. Mood (Columbia, SC USA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is an excellent collection of John Wayne movies that are all set in World War II in the Pacific Theater of Operations. Each film individually stands on it's own as a very good depiction of the dedication, perseverance, sacrifice, and bravery of our United States armed forces fighting incredible odds in the Pacific area of World War II. "They Were Expendable" is set against a backdrop of the early use of the PT Boat, as President John F. Kennedy served on. (JFK himself is NOT depicted). "Flying Leathernecks" is a little more title obvious is about Marine Corps fliers in WW II. "Operation Pacific" is about the submarine warfare aspect of WW II. Back To Bataan" depicts the fight in the Philippines and the way the US Armed forces worked with the Filipino freedom fighters in their effort to resist the Japanese.
They are all good films, each worth the cost of the set, and then some. So grab up the set and get a bargain. You may want to stock up on popcorn and have a weekend film festival.
