Prison Ship (1945)
6/10
WWII film
14 July 2023
The war is over. Japan has surrendered. Stories of their brutality are now surfacing. On Karaku Island, allied prisoners and captured civilians are being loaded onto a ship for destination unknown. British journalist Anne Graham is hiding amongst the prisoners with photos of Japanese atrocities. The group finds it odd that they're not blacked out at night. They're being used as decoys for American submarines. They plan a breakout from the prison ship.

When they start fighting, I don't know why almost everybody is standing back. The least they can do is smack the guard with their tin cups. I also don't like the Captain catching them with the dead guard. He would never allow them to live after that. The situation needs to make more sense. This would be a great prison escape movie if it's done more competently.
