Rating: 2/4 --
Alternately hokey and inspiring.

TV Guide
A frankly oldfashioned World War II morality play, hinging on soccer as a civilized metaphor for the game of War.

Variety
Unsatisfactory both for fans of star-studded prison escape dramas and for football fans hoping to see cunningly devised tactics from Pele and his squad of internationals.

Rating: 3/5 --
The form of the film is conventional, but the manner in which it has been executed is not.

Rating: 3/5 --
Huston, showing admirable range in his old age, creates enough on-field magic and nostalgia for the beatiful game as an idyll of now-extinct sportsmanship.

Description by OLDIES.com:
This is no ordinary soccer match. This is war! The battlefield: a stadium in occupied Paris. The armies: German all-stars vs. ragtag Allied POWs. The objective: demonstrate another "proof" of Aryan superiority.
