Code Name: Emerald (1985)


In April 1944 an allied agent is sent to France in order to rescue an "Overlord" captured by the Germans.

Old-fashioned WWII double agent thriller with an unusual plot professionally produced and with a well-selected cast.

Halliwell (no star): "Plodding, old hat melodrama with no specific virtues."

Maltin **: "Old-fashioned WW2 espionage tale...Credibility is undermined by miscasting Stoltz, who looks way too young to be an intelligence lieutenant and the target Overlord."
