Good war action movie

Rating: 8/10 (27 August 2005)

One of my all time favorites. When I was growing up, I saw it on the big screen when I was in Bogota Columbia (in English!). Since then a time or two on TV and more recently when I bought a DVD copy. Thrilling, with a good tempo and soundtrack, plus some magnificent filming. Watch it with the A/C turned down, in a dark room with the sound turned way up! "Broadsword calling Danny Boy..." Richard Burton gets first billing for this but that was okay. There are some really cool scenes in the mountains and a thrilling get away that will have you biting your nails... To this day when I hear the soundtrack it brings back the movie and makes the hair on my arms stand. Highly recommended.
