The offbeat casting of Cary Grant as a submarine captain pays off in this tense WWII underwater picture; he ably trades in his sophistication for the sweaty close quarters of an action movie. The mission? Infiltrate the mined harbor of Tokyo itself, a feat bookended by a brief confrontation in the Aleutians and a depth-charge chase through the open sea. Skipper Grant is supported by the usual stock crew of Navy melting-pot types, with John Garfield drawing duty as the resident dame-crazy fantasist. (Somebody forgot to put the saltpeter in his chow, apparently.) The solid action alternates with dialogue that tends toward the schmaltzy or jingoistic (the movie's become somewhat notorious for its unusually nasty propagandistic jabs at the Japanese enemy). Destination Tokyo was the directing debut of Delmer Daves, who would later excel in smart Westerns such as 3:10 to Yuma. --Robert Horton

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Destination Tokyo
This is a great movie, i have seen this movie several times and I wanted on dvd



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Destination Tokyo
One of the definative WW-II sub movies ever made. Plenty of story lines and action and drama. It was made at the height of the war, before we turned the tide in the Pacific. It was a morale booster for the people of the U.S. Today's Follie-wood would not make this movie. At least not as it was originally made. It is definately a pro U.S. movie with plenty of references to God. (When I was in Iraq, I noticed many people praying in the chow hall that never did when they were in the States!)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the best.
This is the only War Movie that Cary Grant made during WWII. The acting is excellent. How could it not be with actors like Cary Grant, John Garfield, Dane Clark, and Alan Hale Sr. It is action packed and in my opinion one of the best, just behind Run Silent, Run Deep. If you love WWII action, and submarines, you must have this in your collection. You can't go wrong!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic WWII movie
For a World War II buff, this movie is a classic and a must have.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Keys Of The Kingdom
A fine movie, Peck is the best. This is about a missionaries life. It might touch on the meaning of life for some. Is happiness about getting things or service to mankind?
