Attack
ActionAdventureDramaWar107 min
During the Battle of the Bulge in 1944, Lieutenant Costa is ordered to establish artillery observation posts in a strategic sector while questioning whether his own captain can keep the company alive. Jack Palance is Costa, a blunt infantry officer trapped between the front line and a failing chain of command; Eddie Albert's Captain Cooney inspires fear and resentment instead of confidence. As the unit pushes back from the front, pressure from above — including Lee Marvin's colonel — turns a combat assignment into a struggle over responsibility, authority, and survival inside the ranks.
