Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
This 1976 adventure story set in World War II concerns a Nazi plot to kidnap Churchill from his retreat--or murder him if need be. The large, great cast and a director, John Sturges, who's been down this road of ensemble action before (The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape) make this project exciting if not as memorable as Sturges's more famous works. The weak ending doesn't help. -- Tom Keogh

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Movie, But Hard to Embrace
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: From the Secret Files of Harry Pennypacker
The Art of Storytelling: How To Write A Story....Any Story
Shadow Watcher
Nobody Drowns in Mineral Lake

Even though this WW2 espionage drama is well made and completely engrossing, it's a hard picture to embrace...primarily because there is nobody in it that you can like and want to root for during the first hour or so.

True, Michael Caine and Robert Duvall play "good Germans"; honorable soldiers who detest Hitler and his policies, but are sworn to do all they can for their country. And, Donald Sutherland, who works for the German cause, is an Irishman, dedicated to the bringing about of a United Ireland by any means possible.

Still, these guys are out to either kidnap or kill Winston Churchill...and what viewer wants to see that happen?

We don't meet the story's "hero" ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great WWII Thriller
This movie is based on a great book by Jack Higgins.It really follows the book very well and the actors in the movie are believable in their roles. I highly recommend this movie and/or the same named book!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good Cast Good Story
I watched this movie a long time ago and brought it out of my collection recently. I must say that it holds up very well. The casting is just perfect and Jack Higgins story is really entertaining. Michael Caine and Robert Duvall are both perfect for their parts and really chew up the scenes. Another stand out in a small role is Larry Hagman. This movie has plenty of intrique and action.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - An excellent war film
This is a great movie. I remember it as one of the first videos I ever watched.

In this movie a series of unconnected or coincidental events makes it possible for the Germans to kidnap Winston Churchill while he is near the coast. This movie has everything: espionage, drama, courage, romance, even humor. Well worth the time!
