This one is OK, nothing more.

I have a soft spot for it since I was a fan of Alistair Maclean (who also wrote Guns of Navarone and of course Where Eagles Dare) and this was another I saw at the drive in with my dad. PLUS I was huge into World War II as a kid and this has Han Solo in it.

So, no. Definitely not a classic, but one I could rewatch gladly anytime.
