Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
An action packed prisoner of war thriller and Ole Blue Eyes doesn't even sing a note.

After a sluggish beginning, Express starts to swing, and Frank swings with it

The film only pretends, and manages, to entertain, nothing more. [Full Review in Spanish]

Mark Robson has made realistic use of the actual Italian setting of the David Westheimer novel in garmenting his action in hard-hitting direction and sharply-drawn performances.

Product Description:
The thrilling VON RYAN'S EXPRESS stars Frank Sinatra as a POW colonel who leads a daring escape from Nazi Germany by taking over a freight train, but he has to win over the British soldiers he finds himself commanding. Excellent performances by the great Trevor Howard and Luther Adler highlight this fast-paced picture directed by Mark Robson (PEYTON PLACE, THE HARDER THEY FALL). Academy Award Nominations: Best Sound Effects.
