CriticsCritics: 63
AudienceAudience: 6.8
In late 1943, German leaders devise an audacious plan to kidnap the British prime minister during a visit to a Norfolk country estate. A disgraced paratroop commander leads the dangerous mission, supported by an Irish operative who prepares the way in a quiet coastal village.
You may enjoy this if you like unconventional World War II thrillers, morally complicated characters, and old-fashioned adventure, especially films such as The Dirty Dozen; Not for you if you want strict realism or consistently polished action.
