Wild Geese

1978

A troop of aged mercenaries are sent to rescue a political prisoner in Africa. But all is not as it seems.

A curious mixture, an old school action film that strives for something deeper. Typical of it's producers. Somehow awful and terrific at the same time?! Five years earlier its sins would have been more forgiveable.
