With a stellar cast and serious input from Bryan Forbes this film was never likely to fail. Whilst not quite up there with "The Great Escape" or "The Password is Courage", this remains a must-see for anyone who loves the British movie POW genre. As I said, the cast could hardly have been bettered at the time (and probably since) and all involved are at the top of their game. Even a fairly young Michael Caine gets a look-in with an uncredited 'blink and you miss it' role - this film is not quite perfect but follows closely behind.
score 9/10
