Critic Reviews of "The Big Red One"
Minneapolis Star TribuneJanuary 20, 2005A big, impressive slab of drama -- maybe not a masterpiece or an epic, but a colorful story that sweeps you up and covers a lot of ground at a fast clip.
Los Angeles TimesJanuary 20, 2005'The Reconstruction,' which clocks in at 2 hours, 43 minutes, with not a single extraneous frame, elevates the work from a robust genre film to a full-blown epic.
L.A. WeeklyJanuary 20, 2005To see this seamless 'reconstruction' -- consisting of some 15 entirely new sequences as well as augmentations to 23 others -- is to behold a masterpiece revealed.
Seattle TimesDecember 10, 2004Even though it has gained more than 45 minutes, it doesn't feel longer. Scenes that were choppy or half-baked are now allowed to play out as Fuller intended.
Boston GlobeDecember 03, 2004The director's gift for bare-knuckles lyricism rescues scene after scene.
Entertainment WeeklyDecember 02, 2004If you don't elect to watch The Big Red One through the lens of Sam Fuller's mystique ... you'll realize that it has been celebrated in ways that essentially make virtues of its flaws.
Seanax.comApril 12, 2009... if you want a World War II story from a real vet's perspective, Sam Fuller is still the man and The Big Red One, drawn from his own war experiences, is the film
Antagony & EcstasySeptember 12, 2007Personal observation bleeds out of every scene, and somehow it feels like a true story in a way that most war movies can't achieve.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsOctober 02, 2006... displays both raw power and the hint of war's brutality.
Filmcritic.comMay 10, 2005meant to be the culmination of a life's work... It didn't come to pass.
Deseret News, Salt Lake CityFebruary 18, 2005The cast smartly underplays things, with Marvin being as charismatic as usual playing a man of few words. And Hamill, an actor given to over-the-top outbursts, reins it in here; this may be his best big-screen performance.
Salt Lake TribuneFebruary 18, 2005These places were where Fuller himself served during the war, and he imbues these stories with the same gritty detail he probably delivered telling them over a beer.
