Product description

Nine-disc set includes: Anzio (1968) Large-scale war drama centers on reporter Dick Ennis (Robert Mitchum), who joins Allied forces when they land on Anzio beach in June, 1944. Along with two soldiers (Reni Santoni, Peter Falk), Ennis drives to Rome without altercation from the Nazis, but the Allied decision to avoid advancement to the city and concentrate on a coastal stronghold instead leads to four months of horrific fighting and 30,000 casualties. Robert Ryan, Arthur Kennedy, Earl Holliman also star; based on the novel by Wynford Vaughan-Thomas. 117 min. C/Rtg: PG The Bridge On The River Kwai (1957) David Lean's Best Picture Oscar-winning wartime adventure epic stars Alec Guinness as a British officer who’s captive in a Japanese POW camp and charged by his captors with overseeing the prisoners' construction of a railroad bridge, but escaped American sailor Commander Shears (William Holden) returns intent on destroying it. Acclaimed adaptation of Pierre Boulle’s novel also features Sessue Hayakawa, Jack Hawkins, and "The Colonel Bogey March." 162 min. C/Rtg: PG The Caine Mutiny (1954) Electrifying performances highlight this naval drama based on Herman Wouk's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. The unstable behavior of U.S.S. Caine Lieutenant Commander Philip Queeg (Humphrey Bogart) during World War II forces a group of officers led by two lieutenants (Van Johnson, Fred McMurray) to reluctantly assume command, leading to a sensational court-martial trial for the mutineers. With Robert Francis, May Wynn, E.G. Marshall, Lee Marvin; Edward Dmytryk directs. 125 min. C/Rtg: NR From Here To Eternity (1953) Director Fred Zinnemann's classic drama of the lives, loves, and conflicts of the men and women at a Pearl Harbor Army base shortly before the 1941 Japanese attack won eight Oscars, including Best Picture, Director, and both supporting roles. Montgomery Clift is the rebellious private, Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr the surf-swept lovers; with Donna Reed, Frank Sinatra, and Ernest Borgnine. 118 min. BW/Rtg: NR Fury (2014) April, 1945. As the Allies make their final push in the European Theatre, a battle-hardened army sergeant named Wardaddy (Brad Pitt) commands a Sherman tank and her five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Outnumbered and outgunned, and with a rookie soldier thrust into their platoon, Wardaddy and his men face overwhelming odds in their heroic attempts to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany. Guns of Navarone (1961) Gregory Peck, Anthony Quinn and David Niven are Allied saboteurs assigned an impossible mission: infiltrate an impregnable Nazi-held island and destroy the two enormous long-range field guns that prevent the rescue of 2,000 trapped British soldiers. Blacklisted screenwriter Carl Foreman (High Noon,The Bridge on the River Kwai) was determined to re-establish both his name and credibility after spending most of the 50's working in anonymity. To accomplish this, he decided to bring Alistair MacLean's best-selling novel, THE GUNS OF NAVARONE, to the screen. Supported by an all-star cast and produced on a grand scale, the film was an enormous success, receiving seven 1961 Academy Award nominations (including Best Picture) and winning for Best Special Effects. Although Foreman achieved his goal, it was MacLean who would wind up the true beneficiary; his novels became the source for many high adventure screen epics, including Ice Station Zebra and Where Eagles Dare. However, it is THE GUNS OF NAVARONE that remains not only the best of the MacLean adaptations, but one of the greatest action/adventure spectacles ever produced. The Heroes of Telemark (1965) Norwegian resistance tries to stop German efforts to produce an atomic bomb component during World War II. Hanover Street (1979) Margaret is a nurse in England during WW2, and married to a secret agent. Things get complicated when she falls for David, an American pilot. Sahara (1943) After the fall of Tobruk in 1942, during the Allied retreat in the Libyan desert, an American tank picks-up a motley group of survivors but they face advancing Germans and a lack of water.

The DVDs were stacked one on top of the other to stop them from scratching I found a DVD case that holds all the 9 DVDs and still fit perfectly in the cardboard insert. The cardboard got damaged a little because there's no structural integrity.

    Great value, and many classic WWII films. "Bridge Over the River Kwai" alone was worth it. "From Here to Eternity" was a classic, although not nearly as good as I thought it would be. "The Caine Mutiny" was fantastic - and example of older movies with layered characters and an expectation of an intelligent audience, capable of teasing out the nuances of loyalty, service, cowardice, and duty that can happen in real situations. Really highly recommend this. Only issue is that the packaging is on the cheap side - but if one is careful opening the box and replacing the DVDs when done, they should be ok.

    This is a terrific deal for the number and quality of the films you receive this set has some of the biggest movies their genera and the price is ridiculously low. Forget the complaints about the way the discs are packed in in this offering if thats a problem then the easy solution is to buy additional cases they are cheap. Grap this one before the seller realizes its at least $20 ( and likely more) below what they could demand

    Battleground (1949, b/w) is a solid war movie about the 10st Airborne at Bastogne (it won two Academy Awards: Best Cinematography and Best Story and Screenplay). While it has a bit of the stereotypical in terms of the squad personalities and squad dialogue, the film really is grounded in the real and the loss and hardships of war. The Dirty Dozen is a classic and star-filled tale about criminals and misfits sent on a suicide mission. Trini Lopez (musician) Clint Walker(Cheyenne), Telly Savalas (Kojack), Jim Brown (football), and Charles Bronson(Deathwish) are some of the more memorable cast members. The Battle of the Bulge, starring Henry Fonda and Robert Ryan is a solid and realistic version ot this important tank duel where the Germans suprise the Americans and force them to engage in a desperate action. Where Eagles Dare lets Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood try to free a U.S. General from a German Alpine fortress--the film is well-done with some real suspense, twists and turns, and, of course, many Germans biting the dust in several pitched gun battles. Great as all these films may be, the best film by far is The Big Red One (1980) directed by combat veteran Samuel Fuller. Lee Marvin shines as the tough U.S. First Infantry sergeant who leads his squad from North Africa to Normandy and into Germany. The film pulls no punches in showing the fierceness of war, but this is mitigated by the closeness of the G.I.s in Marvin's squad. The version here adds over 40 minutes to the original film; it is in color, it is gripping in its realism, and it has epic sweep. This set includes these five films that cover several cinematic approaches and subjects. There is not a clunker in the bunch. Good to great World War Two films for a great price. If you like war films, you will enjoy this set!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Five different looks at one world war
    Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2008
    Verified Purchase
    I'm sure there are statistics out there somewhere that could verify it, but my guess is that more movies have been done about World War II than any other war. Certainly, if you wanted to come up with a boxed set of movies about the War of 1812, you'd be hard-pressed to come up with one (the only one that comes to mind is The Buccaneer, dealing with Andrew Jackson, Jean Lafitte and the Battle of New Orleans). The WWII boxed set, Battlefront Europe, provides a sampling of stories taking place in the European Theater of Operations.

    The first two movies in the set (based on when they were made) both deal with the Battle of the Bulge, that last real offensive by the Germans. Battleground is the better of the two, focusing on one group of soldiers involved in a battle that's bigger than they can fully grasp; they just do their part. As in all of these movies, some will live and some will die. The Battle of the Bulge is one of those all-star, big budget epics that Hollywood produced in the late sixties and early seventies (others include A Bridge Too Far and The Longest Day) that were often big on spectacle and short on real substance. The Battle of the Bulge has its moments but it is almost too ambitious and makes it seem like Henry Fonda's character was solely responsible for winning the battle (and maybe the war). Other stars include Charles Bronson, Dana Andrews, Telly Savalas and Robert Ryan.

    Ryan, Bronson and Savalas would also be in the next movie, the fictional Dirty Dozen, in which Lee Marvin plays a plays-by-his-own-rules major who fashions a team of convicted soldiers to perform a special mission prior to D-Day. If they succeed, they get their freedom. While it is entertaining, it does take a long time to get to the actual mission. On the other hand, in the other truly fictional movie in the set - Where Eagles Dare - the mission kicks in almost immediately. In this movie, Richard Burton leads a small crew of soldiers (including a young Clint Eastwood) on a raid of a German castle where an American general is being held prisoner. There are some twists, however, in exactly what the mission is supposed to accomplish (from a plotting standpoint, this is easily the most sophisticated movie in the set).

    Finally, there is The Big Red One, more specifically, the reconstructed version that adds close to an hour to the movie. The title refers to the insignia worn by the soldiers who are the principals in this movie, that of the U.S. 1st Infantry. Lee Marvin plays a grizzled sergeant (and WWI veteran) who leads a group of soldiers in what seems like every major battle in the ETO (as well as North Africa). I have not seen the original version, so I can't fully say whether the longer version is an improvement, but it is a decent movie.

    In fact, all of these movies are decent, though not outstanding. I think if you were creating your own boxed set of WWII movies, none of these would make the top five, though not all would miss the cut by much. There are a few extras in the set, including some "making of" features and a commentary on The Big Red One. Overall, I'm rating this four stars: it's worth watching, but it's not the best there is.
