Plot

A bombardier tries to escape from World War II.

Sinekatalog’s take

Mike Nichols's adaptation of Joseph Heller's novel is a bleak, absurd war comedy. Alan Arkin is memorable, and the film captures the book's circular madness, if not all its fire.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
