Factual errors: In the final battle scene, Steve Ross and Han-Soo are fighting off the Japanese troops armed with sub-machine guns. Both these guns appear to be Thompson sub-machine guns which it would have been impossible to obtain in Japan. The only Japanese submachine gun was the Type 100 model which was of a markedly different appearance to the Thompson. moreFAQ

This movie was so convincing, it might be difficult to watch. The acting was so real you can feel the hatred. I've watched it several times. I was disappointed at the ending, because Major Ross (Ton Neal) and Abby Drake (Barbara Hale) almost reunited. But Major Ross felt that his "changed appearance" would get in the way of their life. He forgot that if he had plastic surgery to change his appearance then he could change it again (just not the way it was before).
