Peter Canavese, Groucho Reviews
Consistently reinforces the horrors of war by depicting not only the disasterous military engagements and their toll on heroes, but also the witless political decisions that led to needless, excessive loss of life. [Blu-Ray]

Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Though overlong, muddled, ponderous and overbaked, it's not without some impressive moments.
-
Steve Crum, Video-Reviewmaster.com
Dozens of stars do not a classic WWII flick make. James Caan fares best of them all in a memorable sequence.
-
Clint Morris, Moviehole
A gripping bit of cinema
-
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
Recreates this complicated and tragic military venture with breathtaking sweep, historical accuracy and sober-eyed humanism.
