An all star cast (Michael Caine, Robert Duvall, Donald Sutherland) really makes this WW2 movie about German paratroopers landing in England in 1943 to kidnap Winston Churchill and return with him to Germany. Much of the movie is edge of your seat suspense. I might have preferred if the discovery of the plot had been responded to by British troops as opposed to an American Army unit considering it took place in England. Donald Sutherland is great as the Irish agent who assists the Germans.
