ItÂ´s not a war movie

Rating: 7/10 (7 July 2002)

The film shows us nothing from the brutal II world war but a true story well packed with adventure touch. The plan for the great escape was very clever. MGM created a very good picture but the story was too long. I think it became a classic because this true story has been played very convincing by legendary stars like Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, James Garner, Gordon Jackson, Donald Pleasence etc. In the first part of the movie it happens not much but the the second part was full of suspense and action. If you like war/adventure movies i recommend you to watch this one. The vote is too overrated. I give maximum 7/10.
