It's a strictly mechanical adventure with make-believe men.

This is one of the all-time great war movies, a PoW adventure from director John Sturges that celebrates the indomitable spirit of the Allied forces even when their backs were to the wall.

Each group of characters get their own riveting planning sequences, all skillfully told. This is one "heist" film where knowing the details of how the escape is supposed to go down before it happens only strengthens the suspense further.

Even if you feel you know every scene backwards, there are still manifold pleasures here beyond nostalgia.

Way too flabby at 168 minutes, but once this 1963 feature gets going it's good, solid stuff.

This is a Boys' Own Tale, and, as boys, we wanted it, cleansed of horrors, for ourselves.
