3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] classic of British post-war cinema, fondly remembered for Eric Coates' Elgarian theme as much as the action."

Product Description:

An exciting World War II adventure which centers around the British efforts to destroy two enormous dams in Germany. The film accurately depicts the entire mission from the production of the powerful weapons necessary to destroy the dams to the bombing itself. Academy Award Nominations: Best Special Effects.

Plot Synopsis:

Based on historical events, the film depicts the British bombing of a dam in Germany that supplied German munitions factories during World War II, a victory accomplished only through the painstaking invention of a new "bouncing bomb."
