There were several films done regarding the Israeli raid on Entebbe and it was interesting to see this one due to it being made in Israel soon after the raid with the cooperation of the Israeli military and government. It's obviously low budget and lacks a hollywood polish but basically tells the story as it actually happened with all the political and military machinations that went into planning a rescue mission. I think for most people they'll find the film drags a bit, but it's an interesting film that probably is the most accurate film detailing the raid.
