Vincent Canby · The New York Times 80.00/100.00

A good old-fashioned adventure movie that is so stuffed with robust incidents and characters that you can relax and enjoy it without worrying whether it actually happened or even whether it's plausible.

阿里巴巴 2.00/5.00

唐纳德·萨瑟兰的角色根本不需要,有女间谍就足够了。除了强行加入一段乏味的乡村爱情外根本没存在的意义。花痴女昨天还在说你不会爱上我我不会爱上你第二天就毫不犹豫地把要揭发间谍身份的路人毙了,转头还去通风报信,角色除了令人厌烦外看不到任何爱情可言。迈克尔·凯恩最后开枪打死替身的做法令人费解,电影开始把他塑造成一个人道主义者,见了犹太人宁可得罪ss都要救,不伤害村里的人质。但是最后拼了命要去刺杀丘吉尔是为何,为了掩护自己逃跑还搭上了很多弟兄的命。更何况命令是要活捉而不是刺杀,这使得角色的死很愚蠢。既不是为国尽忠,也不是为弟兄报仇,纯粹为了领便当而领便当。影片想塑造个明知不可为而为之的悲壮故事,但是只有乏味,没有悲壮。

Ian Nathan · Empire 60.00/100.00

Michael Caine as a Nazi and Donald Pleasance as Himmler...what more could you want?
