Movie Reviews of Where Eagles Dare (Clint Eastwood Collection)
Movie Review: Showdown in the German Alps - Guns R Us + Women
Summary: 5 Stars
Showdown time. All action AND beautiful women!
For anybody interested in the great guns produced by German designers this has 4 of the best - P 08's, MP 40's, K98k's and UMG's (1200 rounds per minute).
Beautiful German scenery - favorite scene: with Clint and Richard on the BMW!
Summary of Where Eagles Dare (Clint Eastwood Collection)
Commandos, posing as German soldiers, parachute into a city to rescue a supposed allied general from a Nazi hideaway fortress that can only be reached by cable car.Scorned by reviewers when it came out, this concentrated dose of commando death-dealing to legions of Nazi machine-gun fodder has acquired a cult over the years. In 1968 Clint Eastwood was just getting used to the notion that he might be a world-class movie star; Richard Burton, whose image had been shaped equally by classical theater training and his headline-making romance with Elizabeth Taylor, was eager to try on the action ethos Eastwood was already nudging toward caricature. Alistair MacLean's novel The Guns of Navarone had inspired the film that started the '60s vogue for World War II military capers, so he was prevailed on to write the screenplay (his first). The central location, an impregnable Alpine stronghold locked in ice and snow, is surpassing cool, but the plot and action are ultra-mechanical, and the switcheroo gamesmanship of just who is the undercover double (triple?) agent on the mission becomes aggressively silly. --Richard T. Jameson
