This film is number 1in my favorite top 10 of war films. The fact that it shows what prisoners of war went through to escape from POW camps in Germany and even better is that its a true story. With such a star studded cast and fantastic personal performances from Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, Richard Attinborough and many, many more great actors of the silver screen both British and American. Its a must buy for anybody and where as Saving Private Ryan was about just a squad of men this film tells the story of over a hundred men and their endevour to escape back to allied lines and to fight again against the Nazi Regime. The DVD gives hours of entertainment with extras such as personal interviews with some of the cast. Based on a true story, The Great Escape is epic entertainment that entertains, captivates, thrills and stirs.
