 One of the Greatest War Movies Ever Jul 23, 2010
If you are too sensitive about anti-gay issues, sexism, racism, or any other "isms," then this movie is not for you. It is a classic British war movie set during the so-called Bush Wars in Africa in the 1970s, during the heyday of mercenary activities in the region. What makes this movie amazing is its outstanding soundtrack by Roy Budd and the theme song, "Flight of the Wild Geese" by Joan Armatrading. It is a great was movie that may make you cry. One sad thing about the movie is that a remake is due to be released in 2011. I say sad because no actors can replace the four lead characters (Moore, Harris, Kruger, and Burton). More over, the new version is likely to be a politically correct movie, and this will cause it to loose its authenticity. As a black African, I enjoyed the authenticity, albeit politically incorrect nature of the movie. Highly recommended movie for war movie lovers.

 Save Your Money Jun 26, 2010
I bought this DVD on the recommendation of a friend, who told me that it was "better than Dogs Of War." He was wrong. Even taking into account the fact that it is a dated film, this thing is TERRIBLE! The acting is wooden, the tactics used by the "soldiers" are atrocious...and using what appears to be a Cessna 210 as an attack aircraft? I have it on good authority that Cessna 210's, while excellent aircraft, are NOT capable of dropping napalm or bombs.
Good God.
The only good thing about this barker is the number of FN-FAL's on display.
Joe Bob says 1 star. Don't bother.
 The Wild Geese Apr 25, 2010
Although this is a classic film, it is certainly worth watching again, and again. Great acting along with terrific writing.

Great movie Apr 16, 2010
The Dvd was new so problem at all. The only problem was the shipping that seemed to take longer than neccessary! Otherwise, no problem.
