The Guns of Navarone has long been a big-time favorite of the war-movie aficionados, and the film still holds up resoundingly well today.

David Niven is the subservient but stylish chemist Miller, rounding out a film that ranks among the best war movies.

Great old-fashioned war thriller
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: A --
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

Rousingly old-fashioned WWII adventure

Rating: 4/5 --
A good old-fashioned Nazi ass-whomping, aided by some great effects and a charming pair of heroes.

Product Description:
One of the great war movies of all time, with an all star cast, and a gripping plot--based on the Alistair MacLean novel. A commando team is sent to a Greek Island to destroy the giant guns of World War II Germany which are controlling a strategic channel in the Aegean Sea. This was a groundbreaker in the Special Effects department, too. Academy Award Nominations: 7, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best (Adapted) Screenplay. Academy Awards: Best Special Effects.
