Superior WWII spectacle
June 16, 2007
One of the best WWII action-adventures, with an all-star cast headed by Gregory Peck, Anthony Quinn, and David Niven, this Oscar-winner (in special effects) is stirringly directed by the vastly underestimated J. Lee Thompson
May 07, 2007
David Niven is the subservient but stylish chemist Miller, rounding out a film that ranks among the best war movies.
August 21, 2012
Beautifully paced, this 156-minute classic allows enough time for character development, plot complications (including the requisite double-cross by a member of the outfit) and several exciting set-pieces.

Rousingly old-fashioned WWII adventure
February 06, 2003
A good old-fashioned Nazi ass-whomping, aided by some great effects and a charming pair of heroes.
August 07, 2002
Great old-fashioned war thriller
March 21, 2003

January 01, 2000
...epic grandeur with unabashed heroism.
October 27, 2011
The movie holds up pretty well as a rousing action picture, and also throws in a couple of comments about the contradictions of war.
November 09, 2005
The Guns of Navarone has long been a big-time favorite of the war-movie aficionados, and the film still holds up resoundingly well today.
