This 1969 big-budget extravaganza is noted for its realistic recreations of aerial WWII dogfights.

Rating: 1/4 --
There are so many characters we never get involved. We can't even keep them straight. The writers never solved the problem of incorporating the top-heavy special effects into their thin little plot.

Rating: C --
An all-star ensemble cast consisting of the who's who of British films can't save the war epic from being a bore.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
This production, under the direction of Guy Hamilton, pulled together a veritable international air force of authentic airplanes in flying condition....The cast is fairly dazzling too...

Rating: 3/5 --
Surprisingly flat considering the talent involved.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: 3/4 --
Succeeds in giving the general impression of a pivotal historical moment, and excels in crafting some of the most astonishing aerial-warfare sequences ever put on film. [Blu-Ray]

Product Description:
A powerful and colorful portrayal of an understaffed, technically inferior royal air-crew who valiantly holds off the superior forces of the German Luftwaffe. This pivotal battle of World War II could have led to the Germans winning the war. The incredible cast includes Michael Caine, Robert Shaw, Curt Jurgens, and Laurence Olivier. Based on the actual events.
