这部大型战争片由英国影坛精英空群出动拍摄而成，为重现他们祖国在二次世界大战期间的一段重要历史而卖力。影片以纪实戏剧的风格描写德国纳粹在1940年空袭英国人口密集的大都市，使英国损失惨重，但也激起了英国人民同仇敌忾对抗德国，尤其英军的飞行员更是争先上阵反攻不甘后人。片中战机盖天的空袭场面拍得十分壮观而逼真，效果震撼人心。在众多熠熠红星中，迈克尔．凯恩、肯尼思．莫尔占戏较多，饰演庞玛妻子的苏珊娜．玉则表现浪漫。此外，劳伦斯·奥立弗饰演战术高明的爵士令人印象深刻。

In the spring of 1944 an RAF Mosquito Squadron are ordered to attack a German rocket fuel plant in Norway. The mission involves flying up a heavily defended fjord and bombing a cliff overhang in an attempt to bury the factory, which is built into the rock. 　　I bought this on DVD in a '3 for £20' offer, as I had fond memories of it from childhood, and it had been around 20 years since I last remember seeing it. I have to say that it's not nearly as good as I remembered it to be. The plot is full of cliches and there's the inevitable love interest for the lead. That said, there are points to recommend it. Cliff Robertson gives another reliable performance as the Wing Commander in charge of the squadron, and there are equally dependable turns from Harry Andrews and Donald Houston. The numerous flying sequences with the Mosquito Bombers are expertly filmed, and it's a real bonus to finally see the film in its correct 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The special effects aren't bad for 1964, and Ron Goodwin's famous score underpins the whole venture. 　　The main problem that I have with the film is that it borrows heavily from 'The Dam Busters' in terms of plot, without ever scaling the heights (no pun intended) of that classic. It may have lush Panavision photography, better effects etc., but lacks the nail biting tension and expertly constructed drama of its predecessor. However, it's perfectly acceptable entertainment, if somewhat abrupt at the end. 　　Was the above comment useful to you?
