As with Kelly's Heroes, Where Eagles Dare pulls itself together best in its third act

Alistair MacLean wrote an original screenplay that was treated with respect for the writer's unusual abilities as a master of actionful suspense. The resulting film is highly entertaining, thrilling and rarely lets down for a moment.

Rating: 3/5 --
It is so long (almost three hours) that it may finally bore the very action trade for which it was intended; yet it's just at that point of surface boredom that the movie aficionado will probably become entranced.

This is not a picture for sensible souls and rational minds, or for those who relish their peace and quiet. It is for children of all ages who enjoy oohing and aahing and baiting their breath and screaming and closing their eyes (but peeking through).

...it provides full-on thrills, maybe exaggerated thrills, to be sure, but making for an exciting ride, nonetheless.

You have to admire any film that casts Clint Eastwood opposite Richard Burton; the real violence is in the clash of acting styles.

Product Description:
Richard Burton stars as Major John Smith, a British agent during WWII who is in charge a group of six Allied soldiers given the task of rescuing an American general--who is reportedly in possession of the plans for D-Day--from a seemingly impregnable German fortress located high in the Bavarian Alps. Assisting Smith is the sole American in the operative, Lieutenant Morris Schaffer (Clint Eastwood), a fierce soldier skilled with an array of deadly weapons. As the men penetrate the fortress, facing an endless supply of German soldiers, it becomes apparent that some members of the small Allied team may not be who them seem to be. Full of thrilling action set pieces, the screenplay was written by Alistair MacLean, adapted from his own best selling novel.
Plot Synopsis:
During World War II, Allied agents are handpicked and sent to rescue an important American general held in the Schloss Adler, an impregnable German fortress high in the Bavarian Alps.
