Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best movie I have ever seen!
A fun movie to watch. Although it was many years later, with the advent of video tape, that I actually viewed it for the first time, I was raised with the knowledge of this film just the same.

My mother is Jaqueline Duval, the French girl with the bicycle, and as I was told later, she was pregnant with me during the filming.

A good film, not "great", but definitely related to factual events.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - a tight fast moving true war story
i saw this as a kid and thought it was a very cool movie. this is one of three movies i found in a three for $10.00 bin. i was very happy to find this overlooked war movie again.
the red ball express was the name given to the army supply drivers of world war II. after d-day patton's army was moving so fast that supplies fell behind, so the red ball express was put into action.
the movie is very good and it shines a light on a very important and over looked piece of world war II history!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a great movie
I thoroughly enjoyed this WW II movie, it has action, drama and a good plot. I am a recent devotee of WW II movies and this is as good as 5 graves to Cairo, the Enemy Below and The Train in my estimation. (I also enjoyed The Dessert Rats, The 49th Parallel and The Story of Dr Wassell.) I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys a movie of a time when courage and perseverance of men meant personal differences must be put aside-in order that a unified purpose be achieved.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - what I could see it was as great as I remember
The memories of watching the movie with my Dad, it was everything I remember. However, the video stopped playing in the middle. So very dis-apointed. as I had planned to send it on to my Dad. What do I do can I get a replacement ?
