Escape To Athena

I'd forgotten how silly this movie was - but it does have some good action sequences.

[@65billh]

I like this movie. It's serious, funny and action-packed. Never saw it before and has good acting I think with Telly, Roger Moore, R. Roundtree...

[@foreverblueclassics]

It's definitely a comedy film and it amazes me some people, unlike yourself, can't see that. It's great fun!

A very interesting war film, with a touch of "tongue in cheek" humour too. The stunt men certainly earned their money on this movie, of that there are no doubts. Does anyone out there know if this was based on a true story, or if it was purely a work of complete fiction? Many Thanks. 👍👍👍👍👍👍😊😊😊😊

Interesting notes, the director on this movie was George p. Cosmatos who later directed Rambo: first blood part 2 with Sylvester Stallone in 1985. Roger Moore appeared in this the same year with his James bond movie moonraker

[@foreverblueclassics]

Thanks for the info :-)

[@thesixshooter6506]

Didn't Kojak ever have a desk job? Lots of awesome "kills" in this one. Nice variety too... something for every taste, thanks to amazing stunt work. Those falls from rooftops and explosion reaction stunts were nice. I don't know how much stuntmen were paid, but it couldn't have been enough. If it was as high as the body count though, I guess they did ok.

[@SSSoldat]

@@foreverblueclassics Reluctantly, but I'm afraid so. We thought that our soldiers had firmly controlled the center of the town. We are overconfident that no one will dare to resist us. When we stood there as firing squad, we're just proud and excited about the imposing of our team. We raised the rifle and aimed at the prisoner, then we only need to gently pull the trigger when we hear the order. But as we concentrate waiting for the order, the damn accident appeared! We didn't have time to react, and almost immediately felt a sharp pain in our chest - the bloody bullet had already gotten into it! No, we don't want to die! Do we have any way to avoid death?

[@foreverblueclassics]

@@SSSoldat Ambushes like this are almost always fatal. I'm afraid it's curtains for our boys!

[@SSSoldat]

@@foreverblueclassics No, that's not what we want! It's totally unexpected! We don't know how this accident happened, but the bullet in our chest forced us to drop our rifles. We also want to hold on after the injury, like the enemy. We used to think that as an elite SS soldier of the Reich, we can certainly do this. But now we can't beat it at all, it's so hurts! We have to screaming, flailing arms and kick legs, trying to escape death in horror. The prisoner who was supposed to be executed by us was running away, but we can’t manage it anymore. Our strength quickly drained from the wound, and we fell to the ground and dying struggle in despair. The rifle we dropped was next to us, but we couldn’t catch it anymore. The only hope is that our comrades can defeat the enemy, and perhaps save us from death.
