Review of Where Eagles Dare (1968) by Nick M — 06 May 2012
Where Eagles Dare starts off as a very slow movie. I wasn't into it the first 15 or so minutes because I had no idea what was going on. But once the movie gets to the parts with the castle, it turns into a great action movie with over-the-top shootouts, plenty of bullets flying and more than handful of dead bodies.
The whole escaping from the castle makes this movie worth the while and gives it it's rating. The story's a little confusing, but it all ties up nicely in the end. As for the acting, Richard Burton does a really good job as the stone-faced Major Smith and while Clint Eastwood isn't given a whole lot to work with, he does a fine job as Lt.
Schaffer.
