“The Hunters” is a well-made, lively Korean war drama, with the accent on aviation. It has an above-average state for this type of film, and the whole movie, particularly the aerial sequences, is expertly directed by Dick Powell. If you are alive to in combat aircraft, there are many scenes of F-86 Sabre Jets spicy MIGs in dogfight battles to the death.

While the planes are tall to scrutinize, this film is primarily about human beings caught up in war. It stars Robert Mitchum, and he is terrific–his fighter pilot character is a born leader, yet he also suspects there is something distinguished missing in his life. He enters into a guilt-ridden relationship with the wife of another pilot, played by dazzling May Britt. When there’s a war on though, the feelings of two people aren’t worth–as someone once said–”a hill of beans”. Mr. Mitchum’s main job is to lead a fighter squadron, and satisfy his boss on the ground–Richard Egan in a strong performance, shimmering that every day he may be sending a man to his death.

Just to compose things even more intelligent for Mr. Mitchum, his squadron includes Ms. Britt’s husband ( a paranoid, self-doubting Lee Philips ) and a cocky, young “hotshot” who doesn’t like “rules” ( a young, splendid Robert Wagner ) . It would be unfair to roar more of the set, but the film is consistently inviting and entertaining.

The DVD is rotund cover on one side, and wide-screen on the other. The colour is very superior for a 46-year veteran film. It does not have “surround sound”, of course, unlike that 1986 aviation hit, “Top Gun”–then again, “Top Gun” didn’t have Robert Mitchum! Tom Sail has a nice smile–but, for leadership and grit, I’d follow Robert Mitchum through the gates of hell!

Actually, I’ll give “The Hunters” 4 1/2 stars. Action–suspense–romance–Sabre Jets–Robert Mitchum–what more do you want? Thanks, Fox–a very nice disc!

When I was 11 years veteran, I saw this movie when it was released. In its air combat sequences, The Hunters is the Citizen Kane of all new air/space combat movies, as revolutionary for its time as Star Wars later was to be for its time. While prior air combat movies had been on the square screens, usually in B&W, The Hunters was filmed in state-of-the art CinemaScope (widescreen) and Technicolor. Its air combat sequences — twisting jets on each other’s tails soaring in substantial clouds, then diving and roaring a treetop level through valleys — were brilliantly conceived and breathtakingly executed — unlike anything that had been seen before. They aloof possess up with the best ever filmed, although they’ve been copied so remarkable (by movies such as Top Gun and Star Wars) that they no longer have the knock-your-socks-off novelty that they originally did. Unfortunately, the feel-good screenplay, with a distracting romantic subplot, bears no resemblance to the gritty, macho fresh on which it was based. In James Salter’s best-selling unique, the Robert Michum character, Cleve Saville, is a WWII old fighter jock who can’t rep a waste to establish his soul, then has no search for when his first-and-only raze (before he himself dies) is the legendary enemy ace. Hence, The Hunters movie is really a estimable action-hero fantasy space in wartime. (…)
