Total Film, 07/01/2003, p.136, "...John Sturges' robust POW actioner follows the template he set with THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN... .It's turns from Dickie Attenborough and David McCallum that provide the heart..."

Sight and Sound, 08/01/2004, p.77, "[I]t's hard not to admire the logistical ingenuity with which Darryl Zanuck put together a production of this size."

Uncut, 07/01/2004, p.142, "This stunningly realised 1962 restaging of D-Day is the last great war epic."
