A group of Allied Prisoners of War on a Greek island plan to escape, but not before they've lifted some valuable treasures.

Wow, this was quite something, a mix of Stalag 17, James Bond and Kojac, I truly had no idea what to expect with this film, I didn't quite expect it to play out as it did.

I understand why it has such a low score, it's hardly one thing or the other, it's an action packed, comedy caper, it looks sublime, but at times the content really is hollow.

There are some imaginative ideas, and it's hard not the enjoy the idea of a team of allies fighting The Nazis on a Greek island, but the ending lost me a little, it does take a pretty wild turn.

The major positive has to be the film's appearance, the camera work is fantastic, those sweeping panoramic scenes look great. Plenty of explosions throughout to keep you entertained.

I liked the music, you'll hear several well known melodies that you can sing along to.

I thought David Niven, Stefanie Powers and Elliot Gould were all good value. Roger Moore's German accent......Cafe Rene, he should have done a stint on Allo Allo, it would have fitted in well.

I thought it was better than its reputation would suggest, just be mindful to manage your expectations.

7/10.
