One of the most underated WW2 films of all time!Apr 19, 2004
By Dave I'm so glad this classic is finally getting a dvd release! While it doesn't have the large-scale battle scenes of The Longest Day, it nevertheless remains one of my all-time favorite WW2 films. Jeffrey Hunter gives one of his best performances as George Tweed, a U.S. Navy sailor trapped on the island of Guam after the Japanese invade in Dec. 1941. There are four other sailors with him, but they are killed off one by one until only Tweed is left to fend for himself. That is, until he discovers the friendly natives, who continually risk their lives (& in some cases give their lives)to protect him from the Japanese occupation troops. He is continually on the move, however, because the Japanese are always trying to catch him. I won't give away the ending, but I will say that this is one of the best WW2 films you'll ever see!

Botched widescreen DVD makes flat VHS version preferableSep 08, 2004
By Alan A. Pereira A side by side comparison of both the DVD and VHS versions shows the DVD to contain no additional video information at the sides of the frame. That means that the DVD image has been matted to a 1:1:185 ratio that crops important signs, not to mention the breathtaking image of Jeffrey Hunter.
MCA-Universal has insisted on transferring every non-Cinemacope/Panavision movie from the 60s to 1:1:185, including the Doris Day/Rock Hudson comedies, which had their precise aspect ratios preserved intact in their laserdisc releases.
Audiences havn't been fooled by MCA-Universal's misguided widescreen transfers on DVD. The out-of-print VHS version of No Man is an Island sells for infinitely more than the low-priced DVD.
MCA-Universal, get your act together. At least try to achieve the conscientious standard set during the laserdisc period.

Jeffrey Hunter was a very fine actorApr 11, 2011
By Byron I was a fan of Jeffrey Hunter when he starred in the movie, "King Of Kings". I also saw "No Man Is An Island" years ago and decided that I wanted to have it in my DVD Library. I'm sure you'll enjoy it if you like true stories of WWII.
