Windtalkers Movie Synopsis
During World War II, U.S. Marine Joe Enders (Cage) is assigned to protect Ben Yahzee (Beach) -- a Navajo code talker, the Marines' new secret
weapon against the Japanese. Enders' orders are to protect his code talker, but if Yahzee should fall into enemy hands, he's to "protect the code
at all costs." Against the backdrop of the horrific Battle of Saipan, when capture is imminent, Enders is forced to make a decision: if he can't protect his fellow Marine, can he bring himself to kill him to protect the code?
the movie was pretty good but it focused to much on joe Enders and not the Ben Yahzee and Charlie WHitehorse. Ithe movie should have focused more on then the true heros of world war II.
The best war movie I`ve seen in a long time !!!!!!!
Windtalkers beats ALL war movies John Woo did an exellent job but what REALLY made the movie was Adam Beach (Ben Yazee the cute guy)I hope there`s ALOT more movies made on him because he`s better than Nicholas Cage!!! Nicholas Cage did pretty awsome too but Adam just totally made this movie..it was very real and whoever disses this movie doesn`t know what a good movie really is!!! I GIVE THIS 5 OUTA 5
