Superior WWII spectacle

Another classic WW2 epic. Suspense, espionage, and some big BIG guns.
June 16, 2007
One of the best WWII action-adventures, with an all-star cast headed by Gregory Peck, Anthony Quinn, and David Niven, this Oscar-winner (in special effects) is stirringly directed by the vastly underestimated J. Lee Thompson

A good old-fashioned Nazi ass-whomping, aided by some great effects and a charming pair of heroes.
