Leave your thoughts about The Wild Geese.
| eFilmCritic.comBrian MckayWhen you're in the mood for a high-caliber, top-notch Brit action film, you can't do much better than "The Wild Geese". |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonFor fans of such men-on-a-mission flicks like The Guns of Navarone and Where Eagles Dare, this is a gripping piece of entertainment. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertEach actor seems to be trying to make it clear to us that he holds the screenplay in more contempt than the other two. |
| User ReviewWalter BOne of my favorite war movies. Plenty of action, but the movie will tug at your heart strings as well. Three very good actors star. |
| User ReviewAndy FBrilliant action war thriller with some brilliant actors. Looking at it now, it's sort of like an early attempt at some sort of "Expendables", but with brilliant British actors of the time instead. If you love films like The Dirty Dozen, you're gonna love this. I've been never too keen on films with Roger Moore in because of his Bond films (except for Cannonball Run), but he's a better actor than I thought, and he proves it here. |
| User ReviewScott CA big, spectacular and explosive good time for two hours. It's smart, very funny and loaded with non-stop action. A classic action movie that you cant help but love. It's a thrilling and endlessly enjoyable British version of The Expendables. It's packed with action, humor, and a large list of British stars that all delivers the goods. I loved this film. Richard Harris, Roger Moore and Richard Burton are excellent together, they are the perfect combo of wit, attitude and heart. Movies like this are rarely made anymore but its nice to look back and see where our heroes of today were inspired from our heroes of back in the day. |
| User ReviewPro TOne of the absolute classic special forces/operations films of all-time. Really does a good job of portraying the historically critical role of mercenary units frequently used during the Cold War (even still today) in Africa when the need for a covertly planned coup was called for and answered by men (characters) brilliantly played by Richard Burton. The supporting cast is excellent as well with Roger Moore and Richard Harris to name just a few. Highly recommended for action/military aficionados. |
| User ReviewDanny RA entertaining good old blood and guts action-adventure, starring the late Richard Burton in a first-rate performance as a fearless veteran mercenary, Colonel Faulkner who has been employed by a sinister British banker, well played by Stewart Granger, who in a effort to advance his own business interests, wants him to free a deposed African president from a brutal prison in Africa, before he is executed by a ruthless dictator. Burton contacts and also hires his former mercenary compatriots, played terrifically by Roger Moore and Richard Harris, who organized 50 crack mercenary paratroops to go to a remote hostile corner of Africa to rescue the imprisoned president. Burton and his team of mercenaries accomplished their mission, only to fine out the hard way that they have been double-crossed by the banker, who has struck a new deal with the dictator. Solid direction by Andrew V. MacLaglen, with excellent supporting performances by Hardy Kruger, Jack Wetson, Winston Ntshona, John Kani, and Kenneth Griffith. The thrilling combat battle sequences are well-choreographed, and the nail-biting climactic escape is very suspenseful. Filmed on location in South Africa. Highly Recommended. |
