This n The Blob were among the first few films of McQueen which i saw during school days n i became a fan of him.
I saw his The Magnificent Seven n others after these two movies.
Revisited it recently on a dvd which I own.
The future king of cool played an angry, morose, detached loner in this flick.
The movie has Bob Newhart in his very first movie role.
Its a very good World War film, not quite in the league of Platoon, Apocalypse Now or Thin Red Line.
But fans of the genre, the director and/or McQueen should definitely check this one out.
I am fascinated by World War II, but i think a lot of 1950s and 60s WWII movies are too cheesy to be believed except a few n Hell is for Heroes is a solid one.
A wounded Reese (McQueen) blowing up enemies' fortification n its occupants and himself is riveting.
This climactic scene is shamelessly copied by a Bollywood war movie Border 1998, during the climax the character of Akshay Khanna copies McQueen's way of blowing up himself n the enemies.
