This movie stars greats such as: The late Gregory Peck, David Niven, Roger Moore, Trevor Howard and Patrick Macnee.
I have not seen this movie yet and would like you Gents opinions of it.

Apparently he (Peck) passed away in June 2003!

I think I saw the end of it. I think at the end they were blowing up some kind of port facility while trying to escape. Can't quite remember it. Maybe I'm hallucinating

Hi BWDS/PzJgr.
I just started watching it today and will finish up on it tonight. SO far it seems to be able to hold my interest. I like their "unit" the Calcutta Light Horse. Hmmm, I must do some research on them sometime.
BWDS, yup--sadly too many greats passed away in 2003. Gregory Peck was always a pleasure to watch--even if I did not like the movie he was in.

Now I remember that movie. It seemed like a reunion of the wild geese movie. Remember that one? Lot of the same actors.

I do remember The Wild Geese. It is one of my all-time fav movies. It was released on DVD in November and I can hardly wait to get it. I love that film. Now it's so-called sequal, is a different story.

And I had heard(years ago) that a third had been planned. Good thing it never happened.

I agree. Wasn't Barbara Carrera in the sequel?

I can't remember if she was or not?
The only movies/mini-series I liked her in was Centennial, and Lone Wolf McQuade. I do think she is very pretty though.
