Review

  • This movie clearly didn't have much of a budget, but what it lacks in effects it makes up for in the personal elements of the story.

    There are no big stars in the cast, but they all do a good job with their roles, letting us see how the war affects people differently.

    The plot is fairly straightforward, to blow up U-Boat pens in Sicily. The pens are storing glider bombs that the Nazis were using to sink allied shipping in the Med.

    It's an enjoyable movie, all things considered, and my only complaint is that they couldn't do a better job of mocking up the very distinctive shape of a German E-Boat.

    Apart from that, not a bad way to spend 90 minutes!
