Matthew H @Hendy2013 Apr 10 Another great ww2 film See more 06/21/2018 I loved this movie! It was a good action flick and Rock Hudson was awesome. The children actors were amazing. The plot was intriguing and the ending was touching and sad. See more 02/13/2018 A great film, great kids, great Sylva and Rock Hudson! See more 05/06/2015 Directed by Phil Karlson. See more 06/25/2014 It's kind of interesting at first, But starts to get a little drawn out. Plus, rock hudson rapes a woman in this film for no particular reason. Then the woman he rapes seems to trust him and becomes allies with him after he rapes her! Go figure... See more 06/10/2013 "The Bad News Bears" meets "The Dirty Dozen." Rock Hudson is a WWII commando in Italy who, without his unit, teams up with a group of orphaned children to take on the local occupying Nazi forces to blow up a dam. The film is done with all seriousness, though it seems too silly and pulpy to be taken seriously. However, it's reasonably entertaining and you also get a fine Ennio Morricone score.
