Reception
Despite the great cast the movie generally received poor reviews. For Mick Martin and Marsha Porter it shows "lots of phony battle scenes, bad acting, and a poor script".[1] Leonard Maltin writes: "Amateurish muddle about WW2 combines tired vignettes with well-known stars, dubbed sequences with others, and newsreel footage narrated by Orson Welles. A waste of everybody's time".[2]
