Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY
I WAS BUMBED THAT THE DVD HAD CUT OUT ABOUT THE LAST 15 MINUTES OF THE MOVIE ,THE PART OF THE FILM WHHERE HE LEAVES THE COTTAGE WAVING TO HIS WIFE AND THEN DIPES THE WING OF HIS 109 OVER THE COTTAGE AND HEADS OUT OVER THE NORTH SEA NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN. I THINK THAT WAS THE MOST HUMAN AND EMOTIONAL PART OF THE FILM

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This one really is "Based on a True Story"
THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY is an exciting WWII film that is based on Kendal Burt's book detailing the real life exploits of Swiss born Franz von Werra, a German pilot who is captured by the British when his plane crashes. Von Werra is played with a muted but still smug swagger by Hardy Kruger,a favorite of mine since SUNDAYS AND CYBELE (LES DIMANCHES DE VILLES D'AVRAY) which won the Oscar for Best Foreign film in 1962. The pilot's sole goal is to be assigned to a POW camp so he can go about the business ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Dave
A typical world war II propoganda style film being made just prior to our entry into the war and in the same vein as that of the Purple Heart film made right after our surprise bombing of Tokyo. The film is based on a true story of a escaped german wwII prisoner setting his sights on the then nuetral USA. An OK film.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Film!
In this film Kruger plays a Luftwaffe pilot (von Wirra) who is shot down over England. He is determined to make it back and fight again and his attempts to escape ultimately lead to his distinction as the only German pilot to return to combat after being held as a POW of the British. The suspense is not as dramatic as in other films but perhaps a bit more realistic. At one point he even makes it to the cockpit of a Hurricane! An interesting movie, filmed in black and white. WWII movies always seemed ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - HARDY KRUGER IS TOO GORGEOUS TO BE TRUE. THE HANDSOMEST MAN IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.
I have to say I first discovered Hardy Kruger in a main title role in The One That Got Away and after seeing him in this I have to say he is definitely the handsomest, most attractive man in the entire cosmos. He was unbelievably gorgeous in The One That Got Away. I felt so sorry for him though what he had to go through in that movie, trying his best to escape the British through all the stepping stones he encountered trying to get to a neutral nation. It made me want to just jump in the film and help ... Read More
