Synopsis Not every pilot can guide his aircraft from a wave-tossed deck, seek out targets over unfamiliar Korean terrain, then return to what looks like a speck in the sea. Naval Reservist Harry Brubaker (William Holden) can. This masterful story of a war-weary World War II veteran who must leave his family to fight again combines moving drama with surefire, bombs-away aerial action. Also starring Grace Kelly as his loving luminescent wife.

Empire Review THE BRIDGES AT TOKO-RI - 2 out of 5  (7/18/2001) THE BRIDGES AT TOKO-RI is a war film with too little action and story. What we get instead are three overdone things: 1) a lame subplot involving Mickey Rooney that is obviously built upon his then-fading star power, 2) the subplot with Brubaker (William Holden) and his kids and wife (Grace Kelly) that really serves as a way to put women in their place and ignore women's contributions to the military during WWII in the first place and 3) the now-very dated propaganda about stopping Communism's   more >> Customer Review Great Movie - 5 out of 5  (8/17/2001) Great aircraft scenes. Special effects way ahead of its time. The story is more in depth than that in most war movies. Far more than most films, this one aquaints you with the pressures and concerns of a carrier aviator during the early jet years. A classic well worth owning. Hey, it was made in 1954! Comparing it with a modern, mediocre movie with great sound and video is missing the point!   more >>
