## Description

Glenn Ford averts a general disaster in the World War II action-comedy Imitation General, costarring Red Buttons and Taina Elg. Surrounded by the Germans and with commanding officer General Lane dead, Sgt. Savage (Ford) and Corp. Derby (Buttons) wonder what to do next. So when Corp. Sellers (Dean jones) mistakes the sergeant for Lane, Savage decides to pretend he's the general and lead a counterattack. The only hitch in his plan is Orville Hutchmeyer (Tige Andrews), a former master sergeant Savage helped bust to a private. For if Hutchmeyer exposes the ruse, Savage will have to decide the best way to be shot: by the enemy or for impersonating a general.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Excellent
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2023*

Great film, even if u don't like back and white formate. Excellent work by two extraordinary actors, and a great wartime director...George Marshall.  Great combat action scenes, and comedy excerpts that will keep you laughing well after the film is over. It's 'watch it again movie', as I have. Wish I could find it on blu-ray with captions. No captions on this product.

    A small movie that works
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2015*

I saw this movie in the theater when it first came out, so I must have been about 12 years old.  What has always impressed me about it is the humor and interaction between the characters.  Imitation General is a bit far-fetched--or it might seem that way--but it doesn't try to be a great movie, just a very good one.  As a result, and again the interaction of the characters helps, it succeeds in carrying out its odd plot device.  I don't want to give away what that is, even though the title does a good job in saying what that is.,  I enjoyed the movie back in 1958 and have looked for it on tv, recording  and watching it when I could.  I'm glad I could add it to my collection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Enjoyable story with good actors
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2023*

This is not a 5-star, top of the line classic, but it is an amusing, easy to watch film with a good plot that's not overly predictable. Ford, Buttons and the pretty Taina Elg all do a good job of portraying their characters, who are average people doing their best in a rough situation. It's easy to like them and want to root for them. Anyone who has knowledge of how intensely difficult and nasty war can be will realize this story, which makes it all look relatively simple and at times almost fun, does not portray the insanity of war accurately. But that aspect of the film is not overdone, and if you can accept that minor drawback, this is a fun movie with a satisfying finish.
