BATTLE excels as entertainment
this is a good film worh a watch if you like this type off film
This is the sort of war film that they don't make 'em like anymore: terrific production values, stereotypical Yankees versus stereotypical Teutonics, the sorts of roles that Fonda, Ryan, Andrews and Savalas could have reprised in their sleep, and an only slightly restrained Robert Shaw. The DVD is really handsomely produced. It's a beautifully clear print with full symphonic score including overture and three minutes of interval music, the Cinerama seamlessly rendered and only betrayed by suspiciously centralised composition and a tendency for subjective sequences from the drivers' windows of cars or trains. Watch it in the dark and you'd swear you were back in the local Odeon circa 1967. Great stuff.
