Kelly is determined to get the gold and plans for himself and a few of his fellow soldiers to slip into enemy territory and steal the bullion. –IMDb

Un film de guerre assez méconnu pourtant très bien réalisé avec de l'humour de très bons acteurs !

Really more of a comic heist movie than a two-fisted action movie, though it does have plenty of rousing action scenes. A great cast of all-star character actors (it's really saying something when Clint Eastwood is overshadowed) and Hutton keeps the story clipping along even at two and a half hours. Maybe not quite as consistent as 'The Dirty Dozen', which it's clearly trying to emulate, but a whole lot of fun.
