"The Eagle Has Landed" is a pretty preposterous movie based on a ridiculous premise, but a terrific cast almost pulls it out of the garbage heap. Director John Sturges — veteran of several terrific pictures including "The Great Escape" and "The Magnificent Seven" — has a keen eye for composition and knows how to stage action scenes very well.
