Arrived earlier than expected and well packed from Switzerland, so thank you! Another unique film formy library! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Well-crafted men on a mission movie *by T***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 November 2008* Tobruk is a superior men-on-a-mission movie with lavish production values and a good set-up even if it has little resemblance to history (there was a Second World War and the Nazis were the bad guys, but that's probably about the only thing you won't need to take with a pinch of salt), with Canuck Rock Hudson sprung from a Vichy French prison ship in Algiers by George Peppard's German Jews fighting for the Allies. Seems he's the only one who can guide them on a raid on the German fuel dumps at Tobruk along with a raiding party disguised as Afrika Corps troops transporting British prisoners of war led by Nigel Green's casually anti-Semitic British colonel. Neither the British nor the Jews particularly trust each other because of that nasty business in Palestine, with Hudson pretty much taking the William Holden role from Bridge on the River Kwai here as a reluctant buffer between them while at a remove from their obsessions. Naturally, there's a traitor in their midst and enemy patrols, minefields and their own airplanes to be avoided, with a Nazi-sympathising Irish spy and his daughter thrown in to complicate matters further and add a bit of half-hearted female interest amid all the testosterone.Obligatory war movie regulars Norman Rossington, Percy Herbert and Jack Watson are present and correct in the ranks (Sam Kydd and Gordon Jackson were presumably busy that month on another war movie) and there's a memorable score by Bronislau Kaper, billed here as Bronislaw Kaper. It's impressively directed by Arthur Hiller with a well-crafted script by Leo V. Gordon (who also appears in the supporting cast as Sergeant Krug) that keeps things moving and throws in the odd good spin on some of the clichés en route to a finale that should please all lovers of very big explosions, while Russell Harlan's Techniscope cinematography looks good in the 2.35:1 widescreen German DVD, which offers an English soundtrack with removeable subtitles and the original theatrical trailer.Odeon's UK Blu-ray offers a good widescreen transfer that suffers a little in the extreme long shots where the grain field increases - largely because it was shot in the Techniscope format, known as the poor man's CinemaScope, which used only half the frame area on its negative to avoid distortion and save on film stock costs at the expense of some quality - but for the most part is pleasingly detailed with good depth to the image. Extras are limited to a a brief stills gallery (18 images) and a fullframe and less than stellar quality copy of the original trailer, which curiously doesn't credit the director Arthur Hiller but does give prominent billing to composer Bronislau Kaper. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/75956085-tobruk-dvd](https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/75956085-tobruk-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Egypt* *Store origin: EG* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
