Reviews for Von Ryan's Express
A far-fetched but thrilling World War II adventure. Watch it as part of a double feature with John Frankenheimer's The Train.
Made for those who like those old-fashioned serial chapter adventure stories.
An action packed prisoner of war thriller and Ole Blue Eyes doesn't even sing a note.
