ESCAPE TO VICTORY
This film was recommended to me by my parents. My Dad is a fan of this movie... and I can see why. It is a good film.
I am not a football fan at all, but I did really enjoy this film.
It is about a group of people being held captive by the Germans during World War II. They start to play football whilst being held, and the German soldiers challenge them to a game. The game becomes a big thing and ends up being played in Paris. The whole time they are arranging this game, the inmates are arranging to escape during the half time break.
The film stars a young Sylvester Stallone and Michael Caine. I am a fan of both of there guys. They are both legendary actors. This is neither of their best film... they have both made better movies. But this is still very good. The legendary footballer, Pele, also stars. Pele makes a great shot in the final match. :)
The story is a typical war escape movie. It's not as good as the classic Great Escape, but still is similar in ways.
The acting is not bad. There are some bits that were not brilliant, but you hardly noticed it really.
There were a few bits that I thought were just a little too unrealistic. For instance, a German soldier sees one of the prisoners escaping, and he just smiled and sat down. Hmmmm... not overly likely.
I will give this film 7 out of 10.
Very entertaining, but not really realistic. :)
