    An amazing cast and budget but let’s be honest this is a batshit grindhouse film. Peck who I usually find boring is fun chewing up the scenery. The little Hitler clones are memorable. Uta Hagen -the great acting guru - has a scene with Olivier which is mind blowing and unexpected in this claptrap.
