Little known fact about World War II

Even though this movie was panned by so-called critics, WINDTALKERS is extremely well-acted. Every movie has its elements of truth with little bits of fiction interspersed to make it entertaining. This is the story of the code that was never broken by the Japanese. The Navajo Code and the men who were trained to use it were hidden from public knowledge for many years. Adam Beach and Roger Willie are truly representative of those brave Marines; Willie is in fact Navajo while Beach is a Canadian First Nations tribal member. Not one of the actors is unbelievable. Nicolas Cage, Christian Slater, Noah Emmerich, Peter Stormare, Brian Van Holt, Mark Ruffalo and Miss Frances O'Connor round out a superb cast. Director John Woo has said he uses close-ups of the characters in order to make them believable and he has definitely achieved that special bond between audience and actor. The special effects are excellent; the film is rated R for language and the violence depicted in a war movie. Any student of World War II will find this movie a must for their collection.

A different twist on WWII movies

As far as movies go about WWII, this one has vested interest in how the Navajo Indians of America helped develop a code language which the Japanese were never able to break. It is full of action and a great performance by Nicholas Cage. Read full review
