Customer Rating:

Summary: Dated, but fun
Comment: It's an old-fashioned war movie in the best sense of that phrase! Lee Marvin had a presence like no other! Not a very sentimental or romantic picture, and the action stuff is dated, indeed! But enjoyable to watch.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Excellent Blu package, includes a full-length 'The Next Mission' in DVD resolution as a bonus
Comment: The Dozen is one of the best 'guy' flicks ever made with 'Prison Break' probably the only contemporary challenge that may actually surpass it.

[Well, they are both on available on Blu so we can enjoy them both now :)]

The plot is very simple and, for a classic such as this one, I'm not sure it's worth discussing it. Okay: Lee Marvin prepares a dozen convicts of the worst kind for a mission to kill as many unsuspecting German officers - partying at a remote chateau - as possible so that the German army would have fewer officers to command it on D-Day. Lee Marvin is a tough guy but so are his trainees. In the end, the mission is accomplished and almost everyone dies.

I very much enjoyed this Blu-ray version of the movie. Of course, it's not perfect, there are (a few) artifacts and there are no surround sound effects but this is a clear improvement over the DVD version. The colors are sharp, the picture is steady, the sound is clear and, overall, it's a pleasure to watch. In fact, I've watched it 3 times already since we bought it, a few months ago.

The Blu-ray version, to my surprise, includes a second, DVD quality full bonus movie , the 1985 made for TV movie "The Dirty Dozen:Next Mission". Add to that a couple of great documentaries, including a contemporary one showing 'the making of', commentary sound track, a contemporary trailer, Dolby 5.1 sound and it adds up to more than I expected.

It's a good buy and a great Blu-ray packaging of a classic.

Summary: Classic
Comment: This is a classic movie that I saw in the theater, when it first came out. I just had to have a copy for my collection. The movie is just as good now as it was then.

Customer Rating:

Summary: "Wreckless Redemption"
Comment: After I read the book, I had to see this movie. How would this all- star cast of moviedom's all-time tough guys, Marvin, Bronson, Borgnine, Savalas, Casavettes, put on a production and not overshadow each other? Well, they did so beautifully, and we have an extremely entertaining movie, as Marvin who is trying to redeem himself with superiors is given a suicide mission that he must execute with a troop of dangerous criminal types and murderers. It is unforgettable and entertaining, to say the least.
