Movie Review: a marvin classic one for the true believers.
Summary: 4 Stars
As notable for being some of Marvins best work as it was for the above average casting. Casavetes and Borgnine give stellar performances ably backed up by Sutherland in an early landmark role which set him up for the great career that followed. It tells the story of a hard nosed gung ho Major Reisman with a record of disdain for backroom generals and a reputation for uncompromising action. He is instructed to train 12 convicted soldiers in the art of special warfare with the mission designed to wipe out a clutch of German high ranking officers housed in a French chateau. Some of the best parts of the plot centre around the training aspects of the participants building to perhaps the most amusing scenes of the movie which take place at the parachute school commanded by one Col Everitt Dasher Breed. It is safe to say that Reisman and Breed are from opposite sides of the track and the ongoing animosity between the two provide some of the more memorable moments of the film.Sutherland gives one of the best performances of the movie in his comical imitation of a General cameo when the group first arrives at the parachute school. The remainder of the film plays out to a logical ending at the chateau where the mission is successfully accomplished and the chateau destroyed. Only three of the soldiers get to make the trip home. Althought the mission never took place in reality it well could have such was the realism portrayed. A classic for Marvin fans and a better than average war movie of that era to boot.Movie Review: A great classic movie that takes place during WWII.
Summary: 4 Stars
A great classic movie that takes place during WWII. While it takes place during WWII, there are plenty of 1960'isms in it. However, it is funny, sad and has lots of action. A great movie.
