Familiar Formulae Blunt Historical Action., 9 July 2002
5/10
Author: rsoonsa (rsoonsa@bandbbooks.com) from Mountain Mesa, California

In early 1945, 10000 Japanese Marines, fearing execution if they surrendered, took refuge within Manila's Intramuros ("walled city"), a fortress erected by the Spanish in the late 16th century, with 20 foot thickness all about, and during an eight day siege and artillery bombardment by American Army and Philippine freedom fighters, all 10000 of the Japanese Naval troops perished, along with 90000 others, civilians in the main whose home was the narrow passaged fort. This film, generally marketed in the U.S. as THE WALLS OF HELL, features sturdy Jock Mahoney as an American lieutenant in charge of a task force composed primarily of Philippine soldiers ensconced within the outskirts of Intramuros, who do battle continuously with the besieged, the incessant action interspersed with extraneous sub-plots and weakened by less than fine direction, production values and camerawork.
