In the spring of 1944 an RAF Mosquito Squadron are ordered to attack a German rocket fuel plant in Norway. The mission involves flying up a heavily defended fjord and bombing a cliff overhang in an attempt to bury the factory, which is built into the rock.
I bought this on DVD in a '3 for £20' offer, as I had fond memories of it from childhood, and it had been around 20 years since I last remember seeing it. I have to say that it's not nearly as good as I remembered it to be. The plot is full of cliches and there's the inevitable love interest for the lead. That said, there are points to recommend it. Cliff Robertson gives another reliable performance as the Wing Commander in charge of the squadron, and there are equally dependable turns from Harry Andrews and Donald Houston. The numerous flying sequences with the Mosquito Bombers are expertly filmed, and it's a real bonus to finally see the film in its correct 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The special effects aren't bad for 1964, and Ron Goodwin's famous score underpins the whole venture.
The main problem that I have with the film is that it borrows heavily from 'The Dam Busters' in terms of plot, without ever scaling the heights (no pun intended) of that classic. It may have lush Panavision photography, better effects etc., but lacks the nail biting tension and expertly constructed drama of its predecessor. However, it's perfectly acceptable entertainment, if somewhat abrupt at the end.

这部电影的气氛像阳光下旧书中一页翕动的断章,表达是克制朴素的,惨烈场面非常平叙,看到酒馆戏那里之后非常自然地想到了《红猪》,不知道宫崎骏有没有看过这部电影。历史在远去之后总是逐渐淡薄、离散、最终凋零。远的不说,大兵瑞恩里的队长同罗伊相比,前者明显更符合新千年生活环境下长大的美国人心中的战斗英雄形象,或者说,他们自然地以为当时的战斗英雄是那样的;罗伊的淡漠、克制、冷静甚至些许冷酷与顽强明显是更符合真... 这部电影的气氛像阳光下旧书中一页翕动的断章,表达是克制朴素的,惨烈场面非常平叙,看到酒馆戏那里之后非常自然地想到了《红猪》,不知道宫崎骏有没有看过这部电影。历史在远去之后总是逐渐淡薄、离散、最终凋零。远的不说,大兵瑞恩里的队长同罗伊相比,前者明显更符合新千年生活环境下长大的美国人心中的战斗英雄形象,或者说,他们自然地以为当时的战斗英雄是那样的;罗伊的淡漠、克制、冷静甚至些许冷酷与顽强明显是更符合真实时空发生过的一切的。“一切的文化产物,总是那个时代社会精神面貌和时人思考态度的缩影。”以前读书时让赏析作品背景总不理解,现在愈来愈感受到。 (展开)

勉强及格。英国一个空军中队受命炸毁挪威境内的德国火箭燃料厂。剧情简单到单薄,开场是投弹训练(因为轰炸方案是把炸弹甩出去炸塌工厂上方的巨型倾斜山体),中段引入挪威联络员的海军小哥姐弟俩,姐姐跟中队长谈恋爱,弟弟被纳粹抓获遭中队长轰炸灭口,收尾比较充分铺排了轰炸任务的场面。剧情虽然简陋,但给的都很直接和清晰,挪威姐弟俩为这次任务赋予了复仇的情绪支撑,中队成员们虽然谈不上性格刻画,但最后执行任务时一个接... 勉强及格。英国一个空军中队受命炸毁挪威境内的德国火箭燃料厂。剧情简单到单薄,开场是投弹训练(因为轰炸方案是把炸弹甩出去炸塌工厂上方的巨型倾斜山体),中段引入挪威联络员的海军小哥姐弟俩,姐姐跟中队长谈恋爱,弟弟被纳粹抓获遭中队长轰炸灭口,收尾比较充分铺排了轰炸任务的场面。剧情虽然简陋,但给的都很直接和清晰,挪威姐弟俩为这次任务赋予了复仇的情绪支撑,中队成员们虽然谈不上性格刻画,但最后执行任务时一个接一个的赴死(英国人竟然也罕见的玩起了神风攻击),你能从这些角色脸上看到他们的决然,这是打动人的地方(虽然这次准备工作几乎全盘失败的任务在队长复仇的执念下展开,令飞行员的决死动机不坚实)。特效做的一般粗糙,用了胶片叠层呈现爆炸烟火,模型也做的不细,但也实拍了不少飞行和空地对射的镜头,在当年算合格了 (展开)

牺牲个体来成全大局,客观来说,这次行动确实延缓了纳粹敌军的进攻,但用进步的意识来看这部影片的主题,这样的胜利配得上胜利吗,你会为此骄傲吗?结尾其实已经有质疑了,但是指挥官一句“你摧毁不了一个中队”,不说他冷酷无情,但至少也是自我欺骗和此时此刻的感性意识至上,又恰好和自己之前为行动做出的所有理性决定相违背。

虽然人物众多,但是几乎每一个都有血有肉。片尾的点评很好:你无法摧毁一个中队。
