The first half of the film looks like an absurd slapstick, but at the bottom of the black humor, it deeply reflects the war-weariness of people in the later period of the...

Behind the black humor is the love of comrades-in-arms in the army, especially when Fang Dabie is on the medal made by the sailors. . . The only flaw for me is that I felt prematurely that Mr. Roberts played by Fonda would die for the war, so the final outcome did not shock me. The rivalry between Cagney and Fonda is...

Too positive energy, the subject matter is closer to Mutiny on the Ship, but the results are very different. However, switching back and forth between comedy and seriousness has weakened most of the comedy effect in the...

Mister Roberts Comments

Doc: That's mostly what makes physical heroism - opportunity. It's a reflex. I think that seventy-five out of a hundred young males have that reflex. You take any one of them. Say even Frank Thurlowe Pulver, here. Put him into a B-29 over Japan, and you know what you'd have?
Lt. j.g. Douglas A. Roberts: No I don't, Doctor.
Doc: You'd have Pulver, the Congressional Medal of Honor winner. Pulver, who single-handed shot down twenty-three attacking Zeros. Pulver who, with his bare hands, held together the severed wing struts of his plane, and with his bare feet successfully landed his mortally wounded plane on his home field. Reflex. It's like the knee jerk. Strike the patella tendon in any human being, you produce the knee jerk. Look.
[Doc hits Pulver in the knee and nothing happens]
Ensign Frank Thurlowe Pulver: What's the matter, Doc?
Doc: Nothing, but stay out of B-29s, Frank, my boy.
