    What 'Sequel'?

    This is billed as a sequel to the classic "The Guns of Navarone". Apart from including a clip of the ending of that film, it's hard to see any other connection to this film. The original takes place on a Greek island in the Aegean and this one in the rugged mountains of Yugoslavia. If you're not up on WWII history in the Balkans, you might have to pay close attention to tell the good guys from the bad guys (apart from our heroes, of course). You have the Germans, the Cetnik irregulars (who supported the Germans), the Partisans (who fought the Germans) and the British/Americans. Still, once you have a handle on who's who, the film is a fine action-adventure experience. Harrison Ford does a commendable job as the leader of a commando operation that paradrop into the German-occupied Yugoslav mountains to perform a covert military operation. There are enough twists and surprises as the story unfolds to keep you guessing much of the time as to exactly who can be trusted. There are some great special effects to boot. Give it a try.

    It's a good movie and a good blu ray.

    From the moment the film opens, the transfer exhibits a level of softness that barely surpasses an upconverted DVD. This is likely present in the source material and not a deficiency of the transfer, but it's still worth mentioning in case you were hoping to see video quality on par with some of the recently remastered Blu-ray's of classic films. To make matters worse, some scenes exhibit a heavy dose of grain that gives the background a noisy characteristic, and there are numerous specks or scratches that pop up from time to time. On the bright side, I was impressed with the natural skintones and appropriate color saturation throughout the film.

    The film is a complete entertainment package: A very dynamic sound-track, on-point sound-effects and special-effects, a well-chosen acting staff who really acted their parts well, and a director who pulled the whole thing together to make for a rousing and suspenseful 2 hour solid entertainment package. This commando suspense style film was both a memorable and fascinating view.

    Watched this movie and loved it as a kid; when I saw it on sale for $6.00 on Blu-Ray had to buy it. Great movie and looks amazing on Blu-Ray. Highly entertaining and if you love classic war movies you will love this!!

    Very good action film, but not great. Robert Shaw was wonderful as usual. Screenplay was just ok.

    Force 10 from Navarone is a good sequel to The Guns of Navarone. Its not as good, but I enjoy it none the less. And I always like the convenience of watching it whenever I want.

    This is a great somewhat unknown movie of sorts with some great actors in the earlier years of their careers. Harrison Ford fans will like his performance.

    A classic movie now on Blu-Ray. As hard as hollywood tries, they just can't make them better than these old movies. I remember watching this with my Dad. Now it's on Blu-Ray and better than ever!

    This is a fun movie with Robert Shaw, Harrison Ford and Richard Kiel and lots of other big names in a very good sequel to The Guns of Naverone. I am very pleased with this movie and love the people that are in it.

    It seems that these classic films have more heart than today's films. With Harrison Ford and Robert Shaw (Jaws) leading a great cast, it's just a fun film from my childhood.

    Although none of the original cast is a part of this movie, the pairing of Robert Shaw and Harrison Ford works well. The movie has great special effects and humor .

    This war picture emphasis is on the plot instead of the gore of war. Very interesting, many twists and turns, and it will keep you guessing on the ending.
