A British soldier (Burton) poses as a Nazi and tries to infiltrate Rommel's team with his rag-tag brigade of misfits. Predictable drivel. Contains action footage from the 1967 film "Tobruk."

This movie is the worst I have seen, it is a totally unrealistic plot and the acting is horrendous. This movie is drowned with action to the point that the killing is boring to watch. The German props, including incorrect German uniforms (it should be Afrika Korps uniforms, not Eastern and Western Front uniforms). The worst of this movie is that the panzers aren't even WWII era tanks, they are American tanks that were used during the Vietnam and Korean War which makes it very frustrating for me as one who marvels at the most innovative German machines being made a mockery of in this movie.
