Plot Summary
Steve McQueen delivers a powerful, gripping performance as a defiant loner whose skills as a soldier make him invaluable to his struggling platoon. In the heat of battle during World War II, McQueen and his fellow soldiers find themselves severely outnumbered as they hold off a Nazi advance along the Siegfried Line in France. Using only their ingenuity and bravery, they must bluff the Germans in order to buy some time…and save their lives. Don Siegel directs the explosive action led by an all-star cast, including Bobby Darin, Fess Parker, Harry Guardino, James Coburn, Nick Adams and Bob Newhart. If they can fool the enemy long enough for reinforcements to arrive, victory is theirs.

Hell is for Heroes
Had problems with downloading into my Library. Found the pending download in My Account section. Movie re-downloaded with NO problems. This is an awsome movie that I remember from a long time ago. Excellent addition. Wish iTunes would add more WWII movies.
Steve McQueen + WWII= awesome!
This movie's awesome with such a star-studded cast as Steve McQueen (The Blob, The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape), Fess Parker (Davy Crockett: King of the Wild Frontier, Davy Crockett and the River Pirates, Daniel Boone), Nick Adams (The Rebel, Godzilla vs. Monster Zero, Frankenstein Conquers the World), and James Coburn (Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, Hard Times, Midway). The only cast members that could have been added to the awesomeness of the cast (not that I'm complaining. I still think this movie rocks) is if they got Charles Bronson (Mr. Majestyk, Red Sun, Death Hunt), Lee Van Cleef (For A Few Dollars More, The Good The Bad The Ugly, Death Rides A Horse), Yul Brynner (The Ten Commandments, Magnificent Seven, Westworld), Lee Marvin (The Dirty Dozen, Death Hunt, Hell in the Pacific),and Clint Eastwood (the Dollars trilogy, Dirty Harry, The Outlaw Josey Wales) to join in on the fun. The story is really well written and the action is truly awesome. Don't rent it out......instead purchase the movie. It'll be worth the $9.99, trust me I know.
Oh, and as for the download problem that's been going on with this movie for a while.....it's over. You can now download it easier. There's no problem with it. So, what are you waiting for? Go get it!
Unacceptable Delay!
Music downloads immediately. Why not the movie? I've been waiting now for some time and still no download. This is unacceptable. Either supply the product you advertise for sale or rescind the offer. Smoke and mirrors is not the way we like to see things happen on iTunes. Get it together or remove this offering!
