Deserves a viewing
Although The Men was Marlon Brando's first movie, all the elements of his acting style were in place for the viewers to see. The supporting cast is effective, particularly a young Jack Webb, who shows an acting range beyond that seen in his most famous role as Sgt. Joe Friday in the TV series Dragnet.<BR>A Streetcar Named Desire may have made Brando a movie star, but The Men put him on the map.
Who says sequels suck?
As the sequel to Man, this is an awe inspiring film that introduced audiences to black and white film although the film takes place in a post apocalyptic 1989 where robotic spiders, demonic apes and serial killers with amnesia rule the world. Frightening yet inspiring. Look out Citizen Kane, i think i found a new favorite film that involves robotic spiders.
Brando's first film!
Marlon Brando's performance alone makes the movie worth watching. His sensitivity to the character's pain is so visible that it's just touching to see. It's a great start to the unforgetable legend's film career. I really enjoyed it simply because of Brando. So if you don't particually care for him, then it's not really worth it.
