Movie Reviews of To Hell and Back
Movie Review: The movie - To Hell and Back
Summary: 5 Stars
I read alot of History books mainly WW11 and early American history. Just finished the book 'To Hell and Back' and thought well, why not see the movie (same title) again that was in the theaters back in 1955. Checked out Amazon.com and of course they had it and I wanted it. Glad I ordered it because it brought back memories of the good ole days when I went to the movies on a Saturday afternoon. The DVD is a very good up to date quality movie.
I was NOT disappointed when I saw the movie once again. The book and movie don't differ much at all. You can nick pick all ya want about the details but it was a 50s movie. AND of course Audie Murphy is the star in the book and the movie - in case ya didn't know.
Movie Review: To Hell and Back
Summary: 5 Stars
Very interesting true story of Audie Murphys life, how he grew up supporting his mother and siblings from the age of 12, signed up in the army after many rejections from the various services. He distinguished himself in battle with honours all the time with humility and bravery and consideration of his comrades. He educated himself through courses during his service. On early retirement from services to due injury he had to come to terms with the loss of a promising career. He made this movie of his life and then went on to make wonderful western movies. Audie Murphy is a legendMovie Review: To Hell And Back
Summary: 5 Stars
A must see for anyone interested in WWII and Audie Murphy. Based on his autobiography also titled 'To Hell And Back' this film follows our most decorated WWII combat veteran from his upbringing through his military service. Perhaps the most valuable thing about this film is the fact that Audie Murphy is portraying himself. If you enjoy this film, which I think you will, I recommend his book. It is more in-depth and really puts you in the foxhole. It is moving and thought provoking. 'To Hell and Back' is a must have in any WWII DVD collection.Movie Review: TO HELL AND BACK

Summary: 5 Stars
This is a war movie that develops at platoon and squad level. We get to know all the members. We follow Murphy, playing Murphy all the way thru Italy, France and Germany. I loved the realism and interaction between him and his men. My favorite war movies are the ones, like this, that follow one small squad of men through the whole film. None of the 'Big Picture' stuff here. I appreciated the introduction by a real army General, too. I would have liked to have a leader like Sgt Murphy.
