| Overview: | Mel Gibson leads a team of WWII special forces commandoes--Attack Force Z--to a South Pacific island occupied by Japanese forces. Their highly dangerous mission is to locate and rescue a defecting Japanese official who was on board an allied plane which has crashed in the dense island jungle.
Based on a real WWII mission carried out by Z Special Unit (known as Z Force), a forerunner of the S.A.S., made up mostly from Australian and British volunteers, their daring missions changed the course of the war and remain secret to this day.
