I used to watch this a lot when I was a child in the 80's. Just viewed it again an it was class. Few folk here saying its crap but don't listen. Very tongue in cheek. Lot of fun.

The way George Cosmatos shot the end dancing scene alone made this film absolutely unforgettable for me, some of those images and atmosphere in this film will never leave me as long as I live. This film has perfected what has started with films like Kelly's Heroes. It is fun, it is serious, there's singing, dancing, action, comedy, very balanced epic film, it feels like you live there with all those characters and you don't want to leave, cause the location is so beautiful.
