Thanks Justice but the link didn't work...is this the Great Escape movie that Steve McQueen did?

Oh, why can't they leave classics like The Great Escape alone? (Except for Chicken Run, of course!).

Van Damme? Um, no.

Hi Amos,the link works for me

I presume it is a re-work of the Steve Mcqueen flick.

Good link. I liked the interview with him. I was surprised to see him say "Streetfighter"was one of his best films. I rate it his worst by a mile.....

Well it works now...
