In the spring of 1944 an RAF Mosquito Squadron are ordered to attack a German rocket fuel plant in Norway. The mission involves flying up a heavily defended fjord and bombing a cliff overhang in an attempt to bury the factory, which is built into the rock. I bought this on DVD in a '3 for £20' offer, as I had fond memories of it from childhood, and it had been around 20 years since I last remember seeing it. I have to say that it's not nearly as good as I remembered it to be. The plot is full of cliches and there's the inevitable love interest for the lead. That said, there are points to recommend it. Cliff Robertson gives another reliable performance as the Wing Commander in charge of the squadron, and there are equally dependable turns from Harry Andrews and Donald Houston. The numerous flying sequences with the Mosquito Bombers are expertly filmed, and it's a real bonus to finally see the film in its correct 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The special effects aren't bad for 1964, and Ron Goodwin's famous score underpins the whole venture. The main problem that I have with the film is that it borrows heavily from 'The Dam Busters' in terms of plot, without ever scaling the heights (no pun intended) of that classic. It may have lush Panavision photography, better effects etc., but lacks the nail biting tension and expertly constructed drama of its predecessor. However, it's perfectly acceptable entertainment, if somewhat abrupt at the end. Was the above comment useful to you?
有人权的地方一直揭露和反思，假装把人当回事儿的地方只爱着急歌颂。
以普通人的视角切入这件全球性的灾难事件，故事很简单，但导演选取的事件及运用的视角都很不错，中段长达十多分钟的长镜头跟拍，压抑的中近景，不时的虚焦失焦，以及以不停的电话录音为主调的音效设计，增加了观众的在场感，跟着戏中人物的情绪而呼吸，朱迪科默的表演也撑起了这场戏，最终的崩溃也突显人类在疾病面前的无助，而最后面对镜头的质问同时也是对制度的控诉。7.8
we need someone to unveil the overlooked.
/2021.12.22/后半段好像剧本写的匆忙潦草。
Couldn’t believe wear mask and keep social distance had become my daily routine.
nobody is coming.医疗体系崩溃真是太绝望了
第千标的电影
Jodie太有魅力了，在近几年冒头的新生代里属于绝对的实力派。对比之下，SOHO区惊魂夜里我同样喜欢的两位女演员在演技上就还有很大的进步空间（当然年龄也更小，还有时间）
追一下女主的电影。疫情下欧美医疗系统的紧绷资源不足，老人不是救助的首要，老了怎么办呢？？？疫情开始英联邦不建议公众戴口罩以此保证医疗人员需求🥲🥲收到了中国寄来的医疗物资😂😂结尾不仅仅是在控诉英联邦，对于自己无关的都视而不见
Jo表演太精彩了！虽然故事简单，深度一般，但是本身就是写实电影，很勇敢！
写出了精髓：为什么我们的生命不再平等了。针对疫情的不同国处理。
女主勇敢、无助时的几段表演很不错。
看到片尾的字幕，会对这种作品充满敬意，期待有朝一日我们也可以用电影来改变社会
剧情本身而言拍得很现实，让人很难受。

朱迪的表演真的是将自己完全献给了角色，演什么是什么。仅一个半小时时长的影片，却又时间跨度大且情形多次激化，大半都是靠演员尤其是主演的演技撑着。
前面挺好看的，尤其是涉及到的新冠肺炎，但是最后三分之一转场铺垫过于薄弱，导致对男主线处理非常突兀和尴尬。与此同时，最后结尾对政府的质问，更显得缺乏说服力。
西方的反思片越来越无法满足大陆观众了吧 珍视生命与荒原上随意生长的种子之间存在鸿沟
