Rating:  - Far-Fetched but Action-Packed Flynn Adventure!
Of all the actors of the 40s who made WWII-themed films, Errol Flynn was second only to John Wayne in raising critics' ire for 'winning the war single-handed'. His civilian status was ridiculed, although Flynn HAD in fact, attempted to enlist, but had been rejected (despite his robust appearance, it was discovered he had an 'athlete's heart', plus traces of malaria and TB he had contracted in his youth). Even with the negative press, Flynn's unique status as an Australian who was also an American ... Read More
Rating:  - Fantasic movie
Fun, at times tongue in cheek, certainly cheesy in places, but a great old action adventure picture that rolls just about everything one could ask for into one film. This 1942 movie is one of Flynn's better films, though not as great as ones like Adventures of Robin Hood or the more serious Objective Burma (done a few years after Desperate Journey and now on DVD). Very colorful characters, good looking visuals for the time, great tight directing by legendary director Raoul Walsh who directed a number ... Read More
Rating: - a 1942 version of "Behind Enemy Lines"........wheres the DVD
My older sister allowed me to watch the new military flick "Behind Enemy Lines" with Gene Hackman and Owen Wilson. I liked it very much. Then I found this movie in a movie catalog. At first I was a bit skeptical, then I looked at it on Amazon and saw the reviews it recived and I was hooked on it because it had the same story line as B.E.L. I bought this movie and I loved every minute of it. Raymond Massey does a very good job as the German major. Errol Flynn, Ronald Regan, Alan Hale, and Arthur Kennedy ... Read More
Rating: - Ronald Reagan and Errol Flynn sock it to the Nazis!
An amiable WWII propaganda fantasy starring Errol Flynn as the leader of a small group of Allied bomber pilots downed behind German lines, who are trying to get home, but can't help making monkeys of the Nazis and wreaking endless sabotage havoc before they do. Ronald Reagan, who I'll reluctantly admit was pretty charismatic, is Flynn's sidekick; also stars Colonel Klink, uh, I mean Raymond Massey, as the blustering SS officer who pursues them across the countryside after they escape his evil clutches. ...

Rating: - Fun and Exciting!
This movie may be dated, but it's still well worth watching. It certainly isn't so dated that it drags or is boring.
Errol Flynn and Ronald Reagan lead the cast as members of an Allied flight crew that gets shot down and captured in Germany during World War II. They manage a daring escape from right under the noses of their captors and set out for safe territory, with important German secrets in their pockets! Flynn, who knows German fluently, leads the group and gets them out of more than ... Read More
