At last..........2007-03-13

I'm happy I found this movie. I was a teenager when I saw it on the french television and the only thing I remembered was the chopper chase.
And the end of course. I was looking for it for so many years and I'm so glad I got it.
I love this main character played by David Janssen. I recommend it. If you loved it you should also like "Vanishing point" released 36 years ago exactly.
Enjoy !!!

How sad - they lost the music.......2007-02-11

I was looking forward for so long to seeing this terrific movie again. I saw it when originally presented in '73 and loved it.
When the saw that the disc was out I was all over it. Imagine my dismay when I found that they deleted the original soundtrack. It ruined the movie for me. Sure the action sequences are good - and Jansen is at his best - but without the original music it's nothing.
Avoid this version until they correct the travesty. How much could Three Little Fishies cost anyway?

Critique from a Helicopter Pilot and 40's music aficionado.......2007-01-12

My only disappointment with the this DVD is that the original soundtrack music has been altered (I will assume for licensing purposes). This results in two anomalies: the soundtrack is out of sync in some portions of the film and the first-time viewer of this film may wonder why the main character is waving his hands in 2 of the film sequences. The flight sequences (stunt flying) will be appreciated by any helicopter pilot; however, I miss the original music. If I could buy an un-altered copy I would gladly do so.

Birds Of Prey.......2006-11-11

Been a David Jansen fan all my life since the Fugitive - Dr. Richard Kimble days. Really enjoy action films and this is one of the classics. It was not too long of a film, but just long enough to keep the interest and intensity going. Trademark Jansen Stuff! Outstanding.

Terrible acting, great flying.......2006-10-17

Typically terrible acting by David Janssen is more than compensated for by the outstanding helicopter chase sequences.

Overall, I really like this video guide. It's great to see and hear the birds, and the explanations are helpful. I wish there was another level of indexing to make it easier to maneuver within the DVD.
