My Father-in-law has been looking for this movie "The Dirty Dozen" and hasn`t been able to find it anywhere so he mentioned it to us and I went right to Amazon.com and ordered it.A done deal. I`ll have to say we did go to Best Buy first but they didn`t have it. I promise next time I want something I`ll just go to Amazon first. He loves the movie and I bet he lets us watch it too.
Thank You

This is a must own classic. Any Lee Marvin fan will HAVE to own this gem!

I've been catching up on movies I missed when they first came out, and last night
finally watched THE DIRTY DOZEN. Sad to say, it appears to be showing its age. The
Dirty Dozen, for example, are basically pussycats, with the notable exception of Telly Savalas. There's a lot of wince-inducing dialogue (Ernest Borgnine: I've never
gone for all that "behind-the-lines" stuff. A soldier should wear a uniform!) And the film teeters awkwardly between Boys And Their Toys comedy, and Blast 'em To Bits
action. I'm reminded of FROM RUSSIA, WITH LOVE. When that first came out, the scene towards the end, where Bond releases barrels of gasoline from a boat and then blows them up in the water, had the audience SCREAMING with excitement. We'd never SEEN
anything like that before. Now it doesn't even raise an eyebrow. So watch this for a
pleasant way to pass the time, and a look at stars like Donald Sutherland when they were barely dry behind the ears. But don't expect a Classic For The Ages!

One of Lee Marvin's greatest movies as the leader of 12 convicts. Great cast very good war action movie.

Train them! Excite them! Arm them!...Then turn them loose on the Nazis! Charles Bronson, Donald Sutherland, Telly Sevallas, and the rest of a group of GI's all of whom are imprisoned for various serious crimes get a "deal" from Lee Marvin -- attack a German R & R center full of brass. If you live you get a pardon, if you don't it doesn't matter. Ernest Borgnine plays the role of the general who sells the idea to Marvin. This was shot about the time that Bornine was playing Quinton McHale in McHale's Navy on TV -- a character who was always looking for the angle to get out of the fight. Quite a contrast. Good photogray and and excellent score.
