4 stars (Very Good) Sober, solid, well made and impressively performed war drama focussing on the psychological effects of ‘maximum effort’. Set-bound, but not so’s you’d notice. Exciting climactic bombing run. Nice understated performance from Jagger. ~HiFi

3 stars (Good Enough) Peck is fine in this one - it suits his wooden post acting style as there is not much moving about. The screenplay is very well written with no silly sub-plots and the early scene of the abandoned airfield is memorable. Overall its a change from the norm. ~Tubbs
