Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Leofwine_draca THE FIGHTING SEABEES is a standard WW2 propaganda film featuring John Wayne in a typically gruff role as a leader of men. It's an example of routine wartime heroics that follows the adventures of one of the Construction Battalions that toured the Pacific islands, helping to build bases and providing aid to the soldiers and pilots using the area.The film is briskly plotted and follows all of the usual routines, with a little romance and characterisation of the main characters and plenty of action for the ground-level troops. Wayne is his usual likable hero although he doesn't get as much screen time to swagger this time around due to the amount of supporting characters. The best part of the film is the climactic battle, as violent and explosive as it is.

Jeff (actionrating.com) See it –In a nutshell, it's the story of a group of construction workers in World War 2 who are contracted to build airfields in the Pacific. But when the Japanese invade their island, they are forced to help fight. They are a Construction Battalion, or CB (which sounds like Seabee), thus the name. It's hard to compare this to any other movie because it hasn't been done before or since. But fans of John Wayne movies like "Back to Bataan" will enjoy it. One of the Duke's earlier films, there are parts of The Fighting Seabees that haven't aged well. If you overlook some of the cheesiness of it, you'll enjoy it. In the final battle, we see the good guys using bulldozers and other construction equipment to fight the bad guys. What's not to like about that? 2.5 out of 5 action rating

TankGuy The fighting seabees is an excellent little war movie and John Wayne is terrific in the lead role.The film has a good storyline and there is a lot of action and battles. The action is extremely loud and heavy use is made of rifles,machine guns, gattling guns, grenades and cannons. The final battle is the best part of the movie, in which the duke heroically risks his life to blow up a fuel tank.I liked the fighting seabees because of the action and the storyline. Its just as good as the dukes other war movies like back to bataan and flying tigers. Highly recommended

timgrimes A fine John Wayne movie and no WWII movie collector should be without it. This movie's great patriotic musical score is also a fine example of strong & very well-written harmonies for male chorus; the score sounds like the U.S. Navy Band's men's chorus (an astounding group of music professionals by the way) and is a dramatic performance that supports this very positive story of the Seabees. With some added drama along the way, this movie demonstrates some of the work done by the SeaBees - building facilities & runways on remote islands during WWII; massive runway construction with PSP grid materials, bulldozing, & hut construction, which were all representative of the basics that needed accomplishing during this campaign. This was a refreshing viewing experience in that the then media was supportive of the American fighting man, and while this may make some in today's culture wince, that's their problem. Today's warriors and sailors are just as honorable & deserving of the kind of support that surrounds this kind of movie, and watching this production reminds you of that fact. Very dramatic, perhaps over-acted at times, but a great story about our fine Seabees! If you are a patriot, I believe you'll enjoy this movie.
