Dr. Barnes Wallis was possessed with a seemingly crazy idea - the creation of the bouncing bomb designed to destroy the Ruhr dams and paralyse the enemy's industrial nerve centre. He fought persistent scepticism and disbelief that such a feat was possible. Through the matchless skill, determination and courage of the R.A.F. Wing Commander Guy Gibson and his squadron, the mission succeeded. From today's perspective, the concept can only be described as one of brilliant inspiration. Thrilling action and riveting suspense are combined in the true-life drama of this heroic exploit, heightened with actual newsreels of the legendary raid.

I had forgotten just how good this film is. I thoroughly enjoyed it. What makes it so compelling is the extraordinary story on which it is based. Bouncing bombs! If it wasn't true you would never believe it. That coupled with the bleakness of Second World War Europe and the courage and determination of the people involved, which the film realistically portrays, make this an exceptional movie. It far outclasses the inane dross that Hollywood continues to discharge.
a movie of a remarkable raid well told kept me interested through out the whole movie. a well told story of a real event crossing between a made movie and what i take is real movie clips of the time, portays well the drama of the time and what was involved in a very detailed raid and how hard it must have been to carry out, left me with a real appreciation for the soldiers who flew this raid. well worth the watch highly recomend this movie
