World War II rages across the Pacific and Lt. Cmdr. Duke E. Gifford is in the thick of it. He evacuates children from enemy-held islands. Oversees the development of torpedoes at Pearl Harbor. And prowls the depths in the submarine Thunderfish for a chance to aim his improved "tin fish" - torpedoes - at the enemy. John Wayne plays Gifford in Operation Pacific. "I'm no theory man. I'm a line officer," Gifford barks. He backs it up with lots of bite in several feverish sea battles. He's also a man of heart with a loving wife at home (Patricia Neal).

The opening with the children is excellent; it's a shame it didn't last a bit longer because it had potential. I would have liked it if there were more of that. But even the romance in this war drama, which isn't very brutal or dramatic, works quite well. I know I'm a bit obsessed with the Duke, but he simply elevates even a rather ordinary film. And besides, he chose great partners, or they were chosen for him. ()
