Ice Station Zebra Ratings & Reviews
- TubzSeptember 21, 2025What could have been a classic, was sadly let down by an average script when translated from the book by Alistair MacLean, it lacks the action of Guns of Navarone and Where Eagles Dre or the suspense of a cold war thriller. Saying that, still a decent movie for a Saturday night in with beers and choccies.
- Mister ArnDecember 18, 2024An overlong action film that didn't age well and is very predictable. Plus, Borgnine's attempt at a Russian accent was distracting.
