I finally saw it last night. It is a good movie. But it falls well short of the book. They just skipped over too much
You didn't see the comradship of the prisoners or the bomber crews, nor did you get any of the worry about how unlikely they were to be rescued. Plus, they left out the entire story of his redemption.

Don't get me wrong it was good, and they would have to make it as long as Gone with the Wind to do it justice, but it still didn't quite feel right.
