Morituri (also known as The Saboteur: Code Name Morituri) is a 1965 American war thriller film directed by Bernhard Wicki and starring Marlon Brando, Yul Brynner, Janet Margolin and Trevor Howard. The cinematography was by Conrad L. Hall, and the film musical score was composed by Jerry Goldsmith.
Morituri is by no means a flawless masterpiece, but it is a good film. The problem is, because of a somewhat intricate plot you have to watch it a couple of times to understand it. Some parts of the film are dull, especially some of the engine room scenes where there is relative silence--only the noise of the engine room is heard, but it is ...
The expectedly intense performances from its big names anchor Morituri’s talky yet tense wartime ticking-clock. Brando’s anxious cunning ever teetering on the cusp of being exposed, opposite Brynner’s disgruntled anti-Nazi captain surrounded by party fanatics and conscripted prisoners.
OVERALL – 3.75/5. Overall, Morituri is a well made World War II drama featuring two great performances from Marlon Brando and Yul Brynner. The Blu-ray release from Twilight Time features great video and audio transfers though the bonus material was lacking.
