Review of Inchon (1981) by Harry W — 21 Dec 2012
In the shocking movie, General MacArthur (Laurence Olivier) takes command of the American involvement of the Korean War, while wearing makeup that makes him look like a clown. In South Korea, sporadic presence of white people (Jacqueline Bisset and Ben Gazzara) somehow make the translation barrier between the foreigners and residents very easy.
The bombs are constantly exploding without any meaning throughout this renegade garbage and the Americans are considered all that. Terrible film that is both incoherent and unintentionally laughable includes abysmal script, dialogue, and special effects.
Embarrassing for Olivier (who as I understand was the verge of senility during this wreck) and everyone else sucks as well (I loathed alleged hero Gazarra and actually wanted him to die). Funny there are not that many movies to show the battle front of the Korean War.
Perhaps everyone was turned off by this junk.
