Response
PT 109 was released to lukewarm critical response, although Robertson received good reviews. As of June 2012, Rotten Tomatoes rates the film at 63% approval. A recent review comments that "One of the screenplay's plusses ... is its concentration on the minor but still deadly activities that were undertaken by thousands of men during World War II. Not everyone was involved with the major assaults; many spent their time risking their lives in places and situations of which most people are totally unaware, and it's a nice change of pace to see this aspect of the war dramatized."
