Un gruppo di otto soldati israeliani in guerra con l'Egitto. Dopo aver perduto camionette e carri armati, e anche un elicottero, ridotti a piedi, scoprono una postazione di missili nemica, fanno prigionieri due ufficiali, vengono attaccati, stanno per soccombere ma la guerra finisce.

This Italian-Israeli co-production takes the basic plotline of a typical Italian war film and applies it to the Six Day War. Adriano Bolzoni's story therefore has a squad of Israeli forward spotters becoming separated from their main force. They stumble across a secret Egyptian missile base and launch a surprise assault. In control of the base and stranded behind enemy lines, the squad have to endure attack after attack until their final rescue and news of the Israeli victory in the wider War. Director Maurizio Lucidi does his best with a low budget. He tries to integrate some actual war footage but this has a jarring effect and comes across as inappropriate. He delivers a preponderance of dialogue sequences, some of which are inane and add nothing to the overall narrative while a number of others, particularly the exchanges between the leader of the Israeli's and a captured Egyptian officer, try to say something about the futility of war and hint at an improbable friendship. There are plenty of repeated sequences in the tank battles in the early part of the film and the overall action sequences lack any real flair or dynamism. There is an attempt to develop characters with a touch of depth and for the most part stereotypes are avoided, with the Egyptians (for the most part) presented in an almost sympathetic light. "Hamisha Yamim B'Sinai", to give it its original title, is far from being a good film but it does give a feel for its time and does have enough unusual elements to keep it just about engaging throughout.
