In November 1943 Heinrich Himmler (Donald Pleasance) received a simple message "The Eagle Has Landed." It meant that a crack force of German paratroopers were safely in England poised and ready to kidnap the Prime Minister of England Winston Churchill. The force is under the command of Colonel Kurt Steiner (Michael Caine). All goes smoothly as the German force disguised in Polish uniforms is accepted by the villagers. But one of the men is killed while rescuing a little girl and his German uniform is discovered. The entire village has to be taken hostage and hidden in the town church.Agents and counteragents work desperately to keep the scheme alive. Steiner himself takes a dangerous gamble. He overpowers an American ranger commandeers his jeep and uniform and drives to the mansion where Churchill is relaxing.System Requirements:Starring Michael Caine Robert Duvall Donald Sutherland Directed by John Sturges Running time: 131 minutes Copyright Artisan Entertainment 2003Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: PG UPC: 012236115915 Manufacturer No: 11591

This 1976 adventure story set in World War II concerns a Nazi plot to kidnap Churchill from his retreat--or murder him if need be. The large, great cast and a director, John Sturges, who's been down this road of ensemble action before (The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape) make this project exciting if not as memorable as Sturges's more famous works. The weak ending doesn't help. -- Tom Keogh
