In the spring of 1944 an RAF Mosquito Squadron are ordered to attack a German rocket fuel plant in Norway. The mission involves flying up a heavily defended fjord and bombing a cliff overhang in an attempt to bury the factory, which is built into the rock. I bought this on DVD in a '3 for £20' offer, as I had fond memories of it from childhood, and it had been around 20 years since I last remember seeing it. I have to say that it's not nearly as good as I remembered it to be. The plot is full of cliches and there's the inevitable love interest for the lead. That said, there are points to recommend it. Cliff Robertson gives another reliable performance as the Wing Commander in charge of the squadron, and there are equally dependable turns from Harry Andrews and Donald Houston. The numerous flying sequences with the Mosquito Bombers are expertly filmed, and it's a real bonus to finally see the film in its correct 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The special effects aren't bad for 1964, and Ron Goodwin's famous score underpins the whole venture. The main problem that I have with the film is that it borrows heavily from 'The Dam Busters' in terms of plot, without ever scaling the heights (no pun intended) of that classic. It may have lush Panavision photography, better effects etc., but lacks the nail biting tension and expertly constructed drama of its predecessor. However, it's perfectly acceptable entertainment, if somewhat abrupt at the end. Was the above comment useful to you?
“有些事在哪里都一样，所以我在哪里并不重要，只要我有剪刀就行。”
每个人心里都有些秘密。
在黑帮、年代罪案与屋内悬念等选材都已经高度饱和的今天，依然能靠着出色的气质营造和过人的表演谱出新佳章；比想象中（误以为《王牌特工》山寨篇或去年不成功的《切勿擅动》的延续）出彩很多，票房遇冷实在可惜。摆脱了对华而不实的打斗和“大场面”的依赖，抑或强行给人物着上光环、上刀山下火海的嘈杂跳跃，用铺设谜团、诡计与各种反转流动的空间来仔细栽培它的表达与实现；很像是偶尔逛到一家古着店，淘到好物的过程。跟随着故事下去，那般惊喜就不言自喻。
剧本非常小巧精致，在单一场景下靠一个核心道具磁带把故事出场人物串联完全，依靠大量对白把故事推进的引人入胜，叙事节奏掌握的非常好，内奸和作局者情节的反转也非常让人意外，但前面铺垫过程已经在不断暗示，足见编剧考虑的周到，男主演技更是加分，这个角色在面临生命危险下的沉着，镇定，睿智是电影里的点睛之笔。（8/10）
感觉没有那么的好，剧情张力不够，全程无高潮，本以为在他自曝自己是间谍会有爆发点，结果就真的像是开个玩笑……结束了这件事情
精巧的单场景悬疑故事，并不烧脑，却因为角色需要在各个势力间周旋而颇为有趣，算是一个不错的小品之作。
事实证明Mark Rylance确实是神，然而剧作也是一流的。从此影单里又多了一位可以持续期待的导演
充满张力的舞台剧既视感
Rylance演得太好了，令人安心的那种好。舞台剧感像在对标Hangmen，加上又有Flynn乱入，我甚至暂停瞅了一眼编剧里有没有McDonagh……（1:11:45画面右下晃过”鬼手“……
让我受触动最大的是老裁缝的道德坚守，他提到作为好人的有两个最突出的特点：第一个特点是，具有人性中极为罕见的、可遇不可求的反思、悟性或洞察力。第二个特点是他在自甘边缘状态而获得的自由境界。不是历史专业，但这样的人真的在史料上存在吗，善恶也并不分家，所以这个评价对我而言也具备很强的自审意义。
故事节奏紧凑，属于不拖泥带水的传记电影，漫才的故事很容易就联想到《火花》和《昭和元禄落语心中》，“鲸”和“技艺”同音还蛮耐人寻味的，新旧时代的交替，还是有些精神内核会流传下来吧，革旧如旧。
非常优雅流畅，设计精妙，反转连连，演员张力很棒
告别母亲，再告别法兰西座，匆匆回归就马上又与师父诀别。虽然剧团已经够克制了，但还是难敌大泉洋的演技精湛的催泪自白。恭喜柳乐优弥重回巅峰，后面老年时期恍惚间还真以为是北野武本人。本片表演值得再来一个 影帝 殊荣。
故事无论是内容还是叙事结构都是相当普通甚至有点俗套的，“严师慈父”的日式或者说是亚洲的传统形象扑面而来。但那种纯真的感动依旧能够感受得到，三星半
You sit at your board, you lay out your tools and you start again.
裁缝小店故事多，邪恶入侵牛仔裤，话术杀人缴子弹，激将藏尸窝里斗；剧透预警：开膛手杰克大战芝加哥黑帮。老派优雅别致
大泉洋和影帝的演技确实不错，感觉片子里对“搞笑”的价值观和北野武几次访谈里表达的十分一致：做最认真的事情别人却觉得好笑；搞笑并不是要努力去“如鱼得水”，而是就要成为“鱼”，不游泳就死了，而不是让人感觉“努力”，那就是有负担的搞笑了。很cool。剧团一人有点厉害了。
“I am a cutter.”
总体3.5分，师徒间的感情有点太煽情了，有些深层的感情其实留白比较好。
每一个成功人士都不是偶然的，北野武的老师真是好老师，不仅传授的技能，而且教会了人生。从另一个侧面看北野武也是幸运的，青年时代居然能遇上那么好的人生导师。本来想小剧场当演员只是一个谋生手段，结果一步一步成为漫才大师，到后来走上人生巅峰。话说铃木保奈美依旧那么美。本片算是北野武青年时代的传记吧。
