Movie Reviews of Suppose They Gave a War and Nobody Came?

Movie Review: Love the cast, disliked the plot.
Summary: 2 Stars

2 stars, one for each laugh. Read the reviews, but how could this cast make a movie that bad. They are all my favorite actors (except Tony Curtis) in one movie. Ok for a dollar I bought the movie. Watched and then put it in the give away pile. I have lots of public domain, black and white, full screen, blurry prints that I find more enjoyable to watch. A good study in how a great cast can be wasted. Tony Curtis roll in the movie (script fault) drug it down more. Hy Averback, the director has been great in ½ hour TV shows but doesn't seem to know what to do with a 1½ hour movie. Tank, with James Garner, same type plot, is much better although not a comedy, it has it light moments. MGM has to have better movies to release. Oh yes. That's right, they did with their Midnight Movies series.

Summary of Suppose They Gave a War and Nobody Came?

Brian Keith, Ernest Borgnine, Suzanne Pleshette and Tony Curtis head a Â"first-rate castÂ" (Motion Picture Herald) in this Â"sharp, amusingÂ" (The New York Times) comedy that pits the fed-up brass of an Army base against the fired-up citizens of a nearby town!In an effort to shore up a shaky truce between civilians and base personnel, three hapless Army buddies find themselves appointed Â"community public relations officers.Â" Unfortunately, Sergeant Shannon GambroniÂ's (Curtis) idea of community relations includes pursuing and wooing Ramona (Pleshette), a sexy waitress whom Sheriff Harve (Borgnine) considers his personal property. And when ammo and amour finally clash in an outrageous battle royal, who will ultimately surrender?
