Not bad film, bought it cheap. The start of the film seem to be pinched or borrowed from Operation Crossbow, and if the Dam Busters can do it on a lake they did it on land. Pace of the film was steady and generally not bad, on the whole a good entertaining film for a hour & half.

Thanks Mate. I will see if it is still offered here locally? and or @ DDDvD.com. Isn't this the movie with David McCallum in it?

Currently watching the one and ONLY great version of a classic: The Maltese Falcon-which stars Humphrey Bogart, Sydney Greenstreet, Ward Bond, Barton MacLane, and some other "recogonizable faces". Prior to this version, there were two other earlier versions of this movie. I've seen them both and they both were lousy. Only Bogart could have pulled it off. ;-))

Later today, TCM will be playing a (billed for the one an only time as: Steven McQueen) Steve McQueen classic: The Blob. Todays viewing is going to be a bountiful one ;-))

Also, just finished watching: Hunt For The Red October. Man Sean Connery was as always, bad-asssssss. Shame he retired or so it seems?
