This movie is one of the most understated action movies of the last century. Most of the film isn’t action, but a long cat-and-mouse buildup to lay the groundwork for the action-packed finale. It’s a multi-layered plot and plays its cards close to the chest, cueing the audience in that there’s more going on but not explaining what exactly until the end. It’s an incredibly solid WWII stealth action film and is a must-watch for fans of the genre.

Closest comparison: It’s like The Guns of Navarone by way of The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly.
