Disappointingly mediocre adventure flick

Rating: 7/10 (7 September 2000)

Too many plot twists, pretty bad special effects, nearly painful overlength. Despite these weaknesses, "Where Eagles Dare" is not a bad film. But it's disappointingly mediocre, especially compared to another Alistair MacLean adaption "The Guns of Navarone", which is a near-masterpiece. But like I said, this isn't a bad movie. See what you think of it.
