Amazon.com: Forget Indiana Jones. This 1965 high adventure stars Frank Sinatra as the leader of a mass escape from a World War II POW camp in Italy. That mission accomplished, Old Blue Eyes has sundry adventures camouflaging the freed men as German soldiers, trying to fool the Gestapo, and finally doing battle with enemy planes and ground troops while trying to get a hijacked train through a blocked tunnel. Sinatra is in great form and director Mark Robson handles the endless chain of action set-pieces with panache. A great pulse-quickener. --Tom Keogh

Von Ryan's Express is one of Sinatra's best starring roles. Sinatra, notorious for only doing one or two takes per scene, turns in a fine performance. He hated doing more than a couple of takes because he felt it caused the "freshness" of the scene becoming "stale". In Von Ryan's Express he got all of his scenes right.
Col. Ryan (Sinatra) is an American Army Air Corps pilot that is shot down over Italy near the end of the Italian Campaign. One of the earliest scenes sets the tone of ... Read More

I love Frank Sinatra, singer and actor. The first time I saw this movie on TV I knew I needed it for my collection. I love WWll movies and this is one of the best.

Von Ryan's Express (VRE) is classic WWII `escapist' entertainment. Frank Sinatra stars in the suspenseful adventure that involves a train commandeered by a group of liberated Allied POW's in Italy, making a desperate bid for freedom, with the German army close behind. Although this two disc version of VRE provides additional information about the film, and has some informative bonus features, you may want to pass, if you already own the regular edition of the film. Much of the focus is directed ... Read More

The movie is good time pass, there are numerous movies that exploit WWII and this is ok, one of the better. It lacks emotional intensity of Great Escape or the thrill of Burt Lancaster's Train, Sinatra looks silly and many scenes including the escape on the train are downright stagey. Still there is some humor and Trevor Howard does a neat job. Worth watching once.

Although not as thrilling as John Frankenheimer's The Train, starring Burt Lancaster, who did his own stunts, "Von Ryan's Express" is still a mild diversion.
The main problem with this film, as I see it, is that, unlike "The Train," there is no one particularly nasty adversary who embodies all the evil and stubbornness that stands in the way of the goal, in this case, an escape by POWs. Instead, the escapees are merely trying to evade the German army rather than a monomaniacal officer. ... Read More
