Kelly's Heroes Reviews
The Sure Hit
When I first saw this movie, it was on network television. i had to be in my early teens. But when I saw it i loved it. I mean Don Rickles!!! I'm a big fan of Don Rickles. I knew that if he was in this movie, it had to be good. But then throw in Archie Bunker, Kojak, and Dirty Harry. You've got a sure hit. It was. And some thirty odd years later, it still is. Set in WW II, Kelly (Clint Eastwood) finds out from a German officer, under intense interigation ( a bottle of bourbon!!!), that there is 16 million dollars in gold bars in a bank. Only thing is, it thrity miles behind enemy lines. Big Joe (Telly Savales) is only concerned with getting the troops under his command some R & R in a town with some action ( broads and booze). When Kelly tells Big Joe about the gold, Big Joe threatens to "have kicked out of his unit so fast , his feet won't touch the ground". Of course Kelly goes on with his plan anyway. Securing motar and armored support. Donald Sutherland is memorable as Oddball. A hippie styled leader of the armored support, namely 3 Shermans. Then add Don Rickles as Crapgame, called the Hustler by Big Joe. he's the one that supply Kelly and the crew with the things that they need, including the airial photographs that end up with Oddball. All that is left is to bring in Big Joe. Carroll O'Conner is the general that is trying to get into a town called Nancy. All of his advisers supply him with nothing but excuses. That is until he hears about a brake in the enemy lines thats thirty miles beyond where his advisors said. Other than Goerge C. Scott as "Patton", Carroll O'Conner nails this one. I don't want to give too much of this classic away. As a former Marine, this is the type of movie that would serve to entertain as well as motivate. This movie is more than worth the money. An all-star cast, good storyline, and action. Get this movie and add it to your collection. I have it on both VHS and DVD. It's that good!!!
Best of the best
This is one of the best movies ever. WWII fan or not. It is soooo funny. Of course, having the best cast ever doesn't hurt either. Kelly's Heroes contains some great action sequences too.
