Generally underrated by critics, this 1978 sequel to the famous Guns of Navarone finds a miscellaneous group of commandos and spies trying to hinder the Nazis by destroying a bridge between them and the partisans. The story (based on a novel by Alistair MacLean) has nothing to do with the first film, but it is a tightly woven and entertaining piece with sharp performances and delightful character alliances. Director Guy Hamilton (Goldfinger) brings his trademark eye for handsome vistas to the canvas as well, so this is hardly the shoddy and dull knockoff many reviewers have previously suggested. No classic, perhaps, but a lot of fun. --Tom Keogh

Though Carl Foreman wrote the screen story, "Force 10 From Navarone" (1978) has little connection to Alistair MacLean's "The Guns of Navarone." It doesn't matter. 007 veteran Guy Hamilton directs this action-filled World War II adventure with efficiency and humor. Robert Shaw and Edward Fox take over the Gregory Peck and David Niven roles in memorable fashion - ably supported by co-stars Harrison Ford, Carl Weathers and Barbara Bach. Composer Ron Goodwin ("Where Eagles Dare") provides a typically ... Read More

I am a seventeen year old movie buff and am writing a series of reviews on films from the late fifties on so that parents can know what content issues may arise from these films. The sixties and seventies were known for pushing the content envelope to new levels and despite the common "if it's old it's ok for kids," statement, there are many films during this period that are not suitable for children.
After the review, I have also included my personal opinions on whether or not a film is suitable ... Read More

Irrespective of whether it was intended to be a sequel to the excellent 'Guns of Navarone' or not, the fact it uses Navarone in the title inevitably forces a comparison, to which this film falls dreadfully short. Additionally, if one reads the book this film is taken from, again it falls short by a long margin.
One of the many problems was the miscasting of Mallory. Gregory Peck brought a competent, ruthless and reliable character to the screen with his portrayal of the commando leader, yet ... Read More

Everything that can go wrong for the heroes--does go wrong for them--in "Goldfinger" director Guy Hamilton's "Force 10 from Navarone," an above-average, atmospheric, $10-million dollar, World War II tale of espionage and adventure based on Alistair MacLean's exciting bestseller. Remember, MacLean wrote "Where Eagles Dare." Unfortunately, "Force 10 from Navarone" isn't as superlative as its source novel and many of its problems spring from the unfortunate fact that 20 years elapsed before the filmmakers brought ...

It seems that the full screen version of this film must have been taken from an old worn out video. The wide screen version is a crisp and clear picture. DVD was invented for the movie lover however people complained about many of the films being available in wide screen. Wide screen is the way to go for one sees what the director intended the audience to see.
