Film Description
Aldrich's most commercially successful movie. Wartime action heroics from a motley bunch of death row army convicts led by Marvin's brilliantly cynical and reluctant CO. In a generally excellent ensemble cast of seasoned character actors, Sutherland is a standout.

One of the many things that are most impressive about Aldrich's tough and authoritative war movie is that matchless cast, including Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, Robert Ryan and Telly Savalas, among many others. The director’s critical stock has never been higher, and this issue is a further reminder of just how good he was. < less

Top Director Robert Aldrich's most commercially successful movie. Wartime action heroics from a motley bunch of hardcore death row convicts, led by a brilliantly cynical Lee Marvin, a reluctant commanding officer for the gang. They're given a suicidal mission to destroy a key German command post in return for a chance of freedom after the war if they succeed. No brainer film fans!??
In a generally excellent ensemble cast of seasoned character actors (Ernest Borgnine, Telly Savalas (Kojak!!), John Cassavetes, Charles Bronson et al), Donald Sutherland is a standout, quite superb in a smaller but crucial role.
Great action set-pieces and inspired, brutally appropriate direction from Aldrich at his very best make this movie a fondly remembered 60s classic. Unmissable and unbeatable entertainment! < less
