One of the best World War Two films!!!!
If you watch this movie once you will want to watch it many times. Photography, Scenery and cast second to none. ANXIOUSLY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO MAKE IT IN 4K!! WHY IT HASN’T BEEN MADE YET IS BEYOND LOGIC. Finally BUY AND OWN VIDEO MEDIA, DON’T PAY TO STREAM IT EACH TIME YOU WANT TO WATCH ANY MOVIE!! Not yelling but IT’S A NO BRAINER AS A CONSUMER.

War movies are violent and this is no exception. Heart pounding action. Interesting plot. Great actors. Good guys are invincible.

Want to see this movie with a GERMAN vocal track, plus other languages, in a beautiful new released version? Wait no longer!
This review is for "Where Eagles Dare" in Blu-Ray, Region-Free -- with GERMAN as a spoken language, including English and several other Western European spoken languages, too. Also, subtitles in foreign languages, also. This version of the movie was released just a few weeks ago, but I have waited for this for decades!I have hoped that somehow, someone would finally release this movie with a GERMAN vocal track, and that is exactly what this Blu-ray version does. Not only that, but the video transfer is excellent and does not suffer at all from some of the strange "darkening" of scenes that are often noted in some older Blu-ray video transfers. The images are clean and rich, and the soundtrack is excellent also.That one scene in the castle where the two SS officers (one is "Major" von Hapen, and the other is "Colonel" Kramer) go at each other because of the growing intrigue surrounding the capture and upcoming interrogation of U. S. General Carnaby is absolutely PRICELESS in the German language (which I understand and speak). I hope you enjoy it, too. I only waited over 40 years for this film to be released in the U. S. with foreign languages, and now it's here! If this is what you want, be certain that you get this one version -- do not confuse it with others or you'll be disappointed....

Great Movie--lacking in Blu-Ray Technology
I remember watching this movie at the movie theater and I was hoping that the opening scene would be awesome in Blu-Ray, but was disappointed. The snow scene of the alps was lost in grain! Overall, the movie was good, but just not a true Blu-Ray. I get that we are using new technology on old film, but was hoping this one would be AWESOME. However, the price is right!

New Blue-Ray quickly
It was delivered quickly and efficiently! Perfect condition. My old copy developed a “freeze” problem at the 2/3 mark. This copy is fine at a reasonable price.

Great 60's action movie!
Often hard to find this film in digital or streaming formats; having on BluRay for use on my PS5 is nice to watch whenever I want. Great movie from my youth!
