Quotes:
Air Marshal Kutuzov:
You had considered, First Secretary, that this could all be an elaborate bluff by the Americans to distract us from looking to the north, while this single aircraft attempts to escape to the south?
First Secretary: No, Kutuzov, the Americans are simply paying the price for too many years of softness - paying with an act of desperation such as this one.
Air Marshal Kutuzov: You are absolutely certain?
First Secretary: I am certain. They know the potential of this aircraft; they know what it means. I would imagine that, had our positions been reversed, we might have acted similarly.

For 1982 , when this movie was released, this movie shows how tense and security driven the Soviet Union was. This is a good movie and was quite big when I was 14 when it was released.
Fans of Spy-Thriller and somewhat tense intrigue will enjoys this, although it at times comes in as run of the mill , the scenes where Clint Eastwood first comes to the Soviet Union and then is followed is realistic and very watchable.
the effects are good for the time and not bad even by todays standards , I feel the plane trying to leave Soviet airspace and the scenes through the ice valleys are exciting.
