Die Wildgänse kommen (1978)
Eine verwegene, fünfzig Mann starke Söldnertruppe zieht für Geld in den Krieg und nennt sich die "Wildgänse". Unter der Führung des gealterten Colonel Allen Faulkner (Richard Burton) soll in einem afrikanischen Land der dortige entmachtete Regierungschef befreit werden, den Rebellen gefangen halten. An der Seite von Faulkner kämpfen auch seine alten Freunde Shawn (Roger Moore) und Rafer (Richard Harris) - doch auch die können nicht verhindern, dass sich die Mission zu einem Himmelfahrtskommando entwickelt.
